Multiple choice

Instead of going home as I do every day, I took a _____________ and went shopping.

  1. deviation

  2. break

  3. tour

  4. holiday
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The sentence contrasts the usual routine (going home) with something different. Taking a 'break' from one's normal routine to go shopping fits this context perfectly. Deviation, tour, and holiday don't capture the everyday context or the temporary nature of the change.
