    DIRECTIONS: Each of the following questions is followed by four words. Fill the blank with the appropriate word. The neighbour grabbed the boy, and rolled him on the road to _______ the flames.

    A) cover                           

    B) kill

    C) burnout           

    D) fizz out

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The statement talks about a situation in which a boy catches fire and the neighbor saves him. The neighbour did that by grabbing and then rolling him on the road to extinguish the fire. We have to pick the right word that describes this action. Option (b) is correct, because to 'kill the flames' would mean extinguishing the fire and this is exactly what is needed here. Option (a) is wrong. Option (c) is wrong, because the flames do not burn out, the fuel does. Option (d) is wrong, because fizz refers to become bubbly or frothy, so it is clearly not the right word here.
