The committee is yet to decide what course of action it should ________
-
accede
-
access
-
adopt
-
adapt
C
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 'adopt' because the phrase 'adopt a course of action' is a standard idiom meaning to choose or take up a particular plan. 'Accede' means to agree to demands (used with 'to'), 'access' means to enter or gain entry, and 'adapt' means to adjust or modify oneself - none of which fit the context of deciding on an action plan.
