Question 1 Report

From the lettered A to E below the sentence, choose the word or group of words that is nearest in meaning to the underlined expression as it is used in the sentence.
The lawyer's argument of the case was exhaustive
Answer Details
The word that is nearest in meaning to the underlined expression "exhaustive" is "thorough." The sentence suggests that the lawyer's argument of the case was detailed, complete, and comprehensive, indicating a great deal of effort and attention to detail. "Thorough" is the word that best fits this description and is therefore the correct answer. The other options, such as "interesting," "exaggerating," "exhilarating," and "fascinating," do not convey the same meaning as "exhaustive."
