Question 1 Report

Fill in the gap(s) with the most appropriate option from the list following the gap(s).

He was _____ weak _____ he could now boast of more _____?

Answer Details
The correct answer is "so/that." This is because the sentence is saying that he was very weak and as a result, he could now boast of more strength. The word "so" is used to show the extent of his weakness, and "that" is used to indicate the result or consequence of his weakness. Example: He was so tired that he fell asleep immediately. Here, "so" is used to show the extent of his tiredness, and "that" is used to indicate the result or consequence of his tiredness.
