Question 1 Report

From the words or group of words lettered A to D, choose the word or group of words that best completes each of the following sentences:
He............be fat, but he still runs fast
Answer Details
The most appropriate option to complete the sentence "He............be fat, but he still runs fast" is "may". The word "may" suggests a possibility, and in this sentence, it suggests that despite being fat, the person is still able to run fast. The word "could" is used to express the past tense of "can" and suggests an ability that may or may not have been exercised in the past. The word "might" suggests a possibility, but with less certainty than "may". The word "can" suggests an ability in the present time, but it does not match the sentence structure, which suggests that being fat should have an impact on the person's ability to run. Therefore, the most appropriate option to complete the sentence is "may", which suggests that it is possible for the person to run fast despite being fat.
