Question

Choose the most suitable option to fill in the blanks in the sentences below.

I was born and ________ in the highlands.

A bred Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B bread Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C bored Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D board Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
E braid Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Let us study the meanings of all options. Bred means to be brought up in a specific environment. Bread is a staple food made of flour. Bored means to feel weary and impatient due to a lack of interest. A board is a thin, flat piece of wood. Thus, ‘bred’ seems to be the most suitable option in the sentence. ‘Braid’ refers to a type of hair styling usually done by interweaving two or more strands of hair. All options except for ‘a’ will be rejected.
