    Question

    In each of the questions below, a sentence is given

    with a blank that indicates that a word is missing. Identify the word that fits in the blank to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct. The young athlete was __________ after winning the gold medal, as it was the culmination of years of hard work.
    A Devastated Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Exhausted Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Exhilarated Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Indifferent Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Apprehensive Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The sentence describes the “culmination of years of hard work” and “winning a gold medal.” This would result in a feeling of extreme happiness and excitement. Exhilarated perfectly describes this high-energy joy. “Devastated” or “Indifferent” would not fit such a successful achievement.
