Question 103

Imagine an _______ public figure attacked by press and public, who is facing an inquiry into allegations of having obtained money by deception.

Solution

From the given statement, we can infer that the public figure is in a turmoil.

'Endangered' means in grave danger or vulnerable to extinction.
'Engrossed' means to be deeply engaged in something (like in thoughts or reading a book).

We can eliminate these options since they deviate from the main theme of the statement.

'Empowered' means to be in a position of authority.
'Embattled' is a term used to describe someone in a hostile situation.

Between these 2 words, embattled is a better term to be used since it has been given that the person is in turmoil. Therefore, option C is the right answer.
