This question is missing the options. I have found the complete question online. We are supposed to fill in the blanks with the appropriate word or phrase:
Prices at the mall were outrageous,______, considerably higher than at other shopping centers.
A. or at least
B. in other words
C. not to say
Answer:
Prices at the mall were outrageous, A. or at least, considerably higher than at other shopping centers.
Explanation:
<u>"Or at least" is used when we add similar information to what has already been said, but not identical. It is as if we are rethinking what we said and specifying it better, being careful to not exaggerate. </u>
For example: "He hates ice cream, or at least I think he does, because he never has ice cream when he is with me." "Or at least" was used in the sentence to explain why I think he hates ice cream and to show that maybe the first piece of information was an exaggeration.
<u>This is the best phrase to use in the sentence given in the question. The speaker first says the prices are outrageous, be then he thinks again and uses "or at least" to show that the prices are higher than in other malls. Perhaps they were not outrageous after all.</u>
If you look at a dictionary to substantiate is to support an opinion or claim with proof or evidence. So a Substantiated opinion is an opinion that is backed up with proof.
Hope this helps :)

I don't want to tell my political view, not because i'm embarrassed but because i myself am apart of this generation so I know no matter who I say I support, somebody is gonna come for me. And I don't feel like dealing with that right now.
Anyway, I hope to God that our country will get back on its feet and get back the respect that we lost during these last 4 years. I hope that police officers will stop killing innocents just for the color of their skin. I hope Americans will start opening their eyes and realize that everything is not okay, and that America isn't becoming great. I hope that we the people can learn to respect each other without judging each other because of skin color, sexuality, sexual preference, religion, belief, culture, and many other things. I hope America would learn to grow up, not just for ourselves but for other people. I also hope that corona goes away within the next 4 months because my birthday is coming up, and its really annoying at this point.
