Question: 186

6. Despite her ------ about her uncertain future, the graduate ------ in the praise that the ceremony celebrated.

  • A. apprehension … basked
  • B. concern … fretted
  • C. glee … wallowed
  • D. optimism … reveled

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

The answer is A

The first blank must relate to uncertain (of the future), while the second blank must relate to celebrate, requiring apprehension (concern) and basked (enjoyed) as the answer.

Do one blank at a time. The first blank, which might seem easier, must relate to uncertain, so you can eliminate choices (C) and (D). The second blank must relate to celebration, so eliminate choice (B).
