Fill Blanks

Question:

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

The anchor gave us a _______ welcome, a pleasant smile and a bouquet on reaching the hotel.

Options:

warm

worth

winning

wonderful 

Correct Answer:

warm

Explanation:

The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is warm.

The word "warm" means friendly and welcoming. It is the most appropriate option in this context because it conveys the idea that the anchor was friendly and welcoming to the people who had just arrived at the hotel.

The other options do not make sense in the context of the sentence.

  • "Worth" means valuable or important. It does not make sense to say that the anchor gave the people a worth welcome.
  • "Winning" means successful or victorious. It does not make sense to say that the anchor gave the people a winning welcome.
  • "Wonderful" means amazing or marvelous. It is a bit too strong of a word to use in this context.
