Question 1 Report

Fill each gap with the most appropriate option from the list following the gap.

Kunle was annoyed for arriving late _____ put him out of temper?

Answer Details
The most appropriate option to fill the gap is "and Kemi's rather insolent manner also put him out of temper." The sentence indicates that two factors contributed to Kunle's annoyance: arriving late and Kemi's insolent manner. The correct option must use "and" to connect both factors and use an adverb like "also" to indicate that both factors contributed to Kunle's annoyance. The option "also Kemi's insolent manner" is incorrect because it is not a complete sentence. The option "also that Kemi's insolent manner" is wordy and awkward. The option "and Kemi's is also insolent which" is grammatically incorrect.
