Question
Select the option that best conveys the original
sentence's meaning and in a grammatically correct way. The law firm's reputation for integrity was irrevocably tarnished by the scandal.Solution
This option captures the severity of the damage ("irrevocably tarnished") by focusing on the ruined reputation of "integrity." Option 1 downplays the damage ("a little bit"). Option 2 contradicts the concept of "irrevocably tarnished". Option 4 implies the scandal caused reflection, not necessarily a ruined reputation. Option 5 makes an assumption that is supported by the question statement.
