Question : Directions: In the following question, a sentence is given with a blank that is to be filled in with an appropriate word. Four alternatives are suggested; choose the correct alternative out of them as your answer.
The man felt ______ when he got to know that he had been cheated.
Option 1: worried
Option 2: horrified
Option 3: humiliated
Option 4: disgraced
Correct Answer: humiliated
Solution : The third option is the correct choice.
Humiliated means to cause someone to feel ashamed or embarrassed, which fits perfectly in the sentence.
The meanings of the other options are:
- Worried refers to a state of anxiety or concern about something.
- Horrified means a strong negative emotional response to something shocking.
- Disgraced means a person who has fallen from a position of respect due to their actions, all of which, while similar in the expression, are inappropriate to be used in the sentence.
Therefore, the complete sentence is: "The man felt humiliated when he got to know that he had been cheated."
