I .......... the argument because I didn’t know enough about the subject.
پاسخ صحیح: گزینهٔ C — dropped
پاسخ تشریحی
Option 3: dropped. To drop an argument is to stop pursuing it. The reason, “I didn’t know enough about the subject,” explains why the speaker withdrew from the discussion rather than continued it. The completed sentence is “I dropped the argument because I didn’t know enough about the subject.”
| Option | Meaning | Why it fails here |
|---|---|---|
| 1. depicted | portrayed or described | Describing an argument does not explain abandoning a discussion because of insufficient knowledge. |
| 2. confronted | faced or challenged directly | This suggests engaging with a difficulty; the context instead points to withdrawing from the argument. |
| 4. broached | introduced a subject for discussion | This means starting a discussion, whereas the lack of knowledge motivates stopping it. |
Exam trick: Read the reason after “because” first: insufficient knowledge makes withdrawal, expressed by “dropped,” the best fit.
