Hinder

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Impede.

Impede means to obstruct or delay something, which is the same as "hinder." Both words refer to preventing or slowing down progress or movement.

The other options don't match in meaning:

Sore refers to pain or discomfort.

Aid means to help or assist, which is the opposite of hindering.

Stare means to look intently, which is unrelated.
