    The following question carries one statement with one blank. Choose the most appropriate word from the options to fill the blank.

    the pandemic on small businesses.
    A conceal Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B examined Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C dismiss Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D exaggerate Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E obscured Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The word "examine" means to inspect or investigate something carefully. In the context of the sentence, it suggests that the recent report intends to analyze or study the economic impact of the pandemic on small businesses. The other options do not fit: "conceal" means to hide, "dismiss" means to disregard, "exaggerate" means to overstate, and "obscure" means to make something unclear or difficult to understand. None of these alternatives align with the goal of assessing the economic impact.
