Question 1 Report

In the question below select the option (A-D) that best explains the information conveyed in the sentence:

Bolade would make a mess of cooking the rice

Answer Details
The option (C) "Bolade will not cook the rice well" best explains the information conveyed in the sentence. The sentence indicates that Bolade is likely to "make a mess" while cooking the rice, implying that he won't do it well. Therefore, the correct option is (C) "Bolade will not cook rice the rice well". Option (A) "it was typical of Bolade to make a mess of things" might be a possible interpretation, but it is not as directly supported by the sentence. Option (B) "Bolade cannot cook" is too extreme and not necessarily implied by the sentence. Option (D) "Bolade does not like cooking rice" is not supported by the sentence as it only suggests that Bolade may not be good at cooking rice, but does not necessarily mean that he does not like it.
