We are expected to fill in the blanks. Find the missing words below:

  • 1. In a traditional wedding, the person performing the ceremony is often wordy, while the bride and groom are very, <u>concise </u>saying just "I do."
  • 2. When he saw no way to <u>avert</u> the plane crash, the pilot parachuted to safety.
  • 3. People often take <u>drastic</u> steps in anger and later regret their extreme actions.
  • 4. The drummer told interesting <u>anecdotes</u> about famous rock singers he had played with.
  • 5. Because Frank seems so <u>candid</u>, everyone believes him even when he tells a lie.
  • 6. In most American schools, it is not<u> appropriate</u> for students to call their teachers by their first names.
  • 7. When the real murderer confessed, the police had to <u>acknowledge </u>that the wrong man had been jailed.
  • 8. To earn money for college, Lonnie felt he had to either join the army or get a job. He didn't like either<u> alternative.</u>
  • 9. A couple of older boys tried to <u>compel </u>some first-graders to hand over their lunch money.
  • 10. Any player who does not <u>comply</u> with the rules will be dropped from the team.

To choose the best word that completes a sentence, the context of the sentence provides a vital hint. For example in Sentence 8 where two things are being compared, 'alternative' is the best word because it means one of two or more things.

In sentence 9 also, we can deduce that the first-graders were being bullied. So they were being compelled or forced to do something they did not want.

When this reasoning is followed, we can complete the remaining blanks.
