Question
In each of the following sentences, choose the word
similar in meaning to the bold word to fill in the blank. His hasty decision to leave the meeting was followed by a __________glance at the report, which he hadn't thoroughly read.Solution
Explanation: Hasty means done quickly, often without enough thought or attention to detail. In this context, it refers to a rushed decision or action. Cursory means something done quickly and without thoroughness, which aligns well with hasty. A cursory glance at the report means a quick, superficial look without deep attention or understanding. Superficial refers to something that is shallow or lacking depth, which could also fit, but cursory is a more direct synonym for a quick, hurried action. Calculating means careful or strategic, often with a sense of being deliberate in one's actions, which is the opposite of hasty. Deliberate means something done with careful thought or intention, which contradicts the idea of something being hasty or rushed. Therefore, "cursory" is the most fitting synonym to match "hasty."┬а
