Question: 251

1. Due to the strong odor of onions _______ through the kitchen, Jason suddenly found himself with tears in his eyes.

  • A. submitting
  • B. surpassing
  • C. wafting
  • D. impeding

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

C is correct. The clue to this sentence is the phrase "the kitchen." Try thinking of a word on your own. Maybe you came up with hanging or floating. Don't be fooled by surpassing (choice B), as that means "going beyond the limit." The correct answer is wafting, meaning "to send floating through the air or over water."
