Directions: Complete the sequence of words with the correct option.
Follow, Comply, Obey, ________ .
- Abut
- Abridge
- Abide
- Abuse
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C - Abide
Follow, comply and obey all mean to act as a rule or order requires; 'abide (by)' has the same meaning. 'Abut' means to border on, 'abridge' to shorten and 'abuse' to misuse, so none of them fits.
