Direction: Which one is the most effective word(s) from the given words to fill in the blank to make the sentence meaningful? He understood the whole thing as he __________ the note.
- go through
- got off
- went through
- gave up
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C - went through
'Went through the note' means read/examined it carefully, which explains why he understood the whole thing; the past tense matches 'understood'. 'Go through' has the wrong tense; 'got off' and 'gave up' do not fit the meaning.
