Question: 221
11. Howard had none of his sister's ------: while she could speak powerfully and expressively in front of strangers, Howard was barely able to ------ even to friends.
- A. charm … administer
- B. curiosity … preach
- C. eloquence … verbalize
- D. practicality … pass
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
C
Both blanks must relate to could speak powerfully and expressively, thus requiring eloquence (well spoken) and verbalize as the answer.
Do one blank at a time. The first blank, which might seem easier, must reflect that the sister could speak powerfully and expressively, so you can eliminate choices (A), (B), and (D). The second blank must also relate to could speak powerfully and expressively. The Latin root loc/loq means speech.
