Explanation:
<u>It is important, especially when it comes to writing, to have and expanded lexicon so as to avoid repetition or the use of general words. That means we can express the same idea in a more compelling way by simply knowing how to employ more engaging words.</u>
Let's use the words above in sentences. Pay attention to how the sentence sounds different after the change for the more interesting option, even though the words have basically the same meaning:
1. The old tall oak had finally been cut, put to rest without mercy. - The old towering oak had finally been cut, put to rest without mercy.
2. Rosana had always been described as a happy child. - Rosana had always been described as a cheerful child.
3. I have just finished a most interesting book. - I have just finished a most fascinating book.
4. The monotony in his voice made his lecture boring - The monotony in his voice made his lecture colorless.

Answer:
D
Explanation:
The easiest method is to substitute each option in place of tolerated. That being said, C doesn't make sense because it sounds wrong- "it was no longer already tolerated" isn't grammatically correct.
B doesn't sound right but there's (technically) nothing wrong with the grammar.
Tolerate means you ARE able to accept or endure something. Tolerable is the adjective version of that.
This can be tricky because you may think it's asking for the meaning of the phrase and not the word tolerable. It's only asking for tolerable.
That being said, A and B are the opposite meaning of tolerable- they mean you cannot endure it, which is the opposite.
D is the answer.
