Question: 15
15. MISCONSTRUED
- A. followed directions
 - B. led astray
 - C. acting to supervise
 - D. interpreted erroneously
 
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
The correct answer is (D). To MISCONSTRUE is to misinterpret. "Word arithmetic" works well with this synonym question. The prefix "mis" means wrong; the root is the same root as "construct," so to misconstrue is to build up wrong in one's mind.
