Question

    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.

    I ______ an unopened letter lying on the mantelpiece.

    A Noticed Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Peered Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Watched Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Glanced Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Here, the correct word that should be used is ‘noticed’. It means ‘to see or become conscious of something or someone’. Peer- to look carefully or with difficulty. An unopened letter need not be looked with much difficulty. Watch- an unopened letter need not be watched. It is staying there. Glance- to give a quick short look. This is also inappropriate.
