Assessment: WAEC SSCE - English Language - 1996 (Objective) Subject: English Language

Question 1 Report

From the words lettered A to D, choose the word that best completes each of the following sentences.
The beleaguered soldiers skilfully.......themselves out of trouble.
Answer Details
The word that best completes the sentence is "manoeuvred". This is because the word "beleaguered" suggests that the soldiers are under siege or facing difficulties, and the word "skilfully" suggests that they were able to use their skills to get themselves out of trouble. "Manoeuvred" means to move skilfully or carefully, which fits the context of the sentence. The other options - "dispatched", "catapulted", and "proceeded" - do not convey the same meaning of skilfully navigating out of a difficult situation.
