Question: 248

18. After the spelling bee's nerve-wracking final round, Sheila could only _______ at her competitor's composure.

  • A. lunge
  • B. stipulate
  • C. marvel
  • D. wander

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

C is correct. Wander (choice D) is an attractive distracter, but don't mistake it for "wonder." Wonder means "to be filled with curiosity or doubt," but wander means "to move about without a definite destination or purpose." Marvel (choice C), meaning "to become filled with wonder or astonishment," is the correct answer.
