Multiple choice

Directions: Fill in the blanks with appropriate words.

Sitting around eating sandwiches at the meeting’s end, the participants seemed most _______ to have been able to _______ their comments about the topic.

  1. elated, state

  2. grateful, reveal

  3. pleased, articulate

  4. aggressive, guess

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The fillers connect with comments, not with sandwiches (happy). Comments are not guessed or revealed. Hence, we would use pleased and articulated. Elated and stated could be used, but elated is too exreme and is not paired with the word 'most'.
