Select the most appropriate adjective to fill in the blank.

After coming from a long journey he said, “It feels so _________ to be home”.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

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

Context: The sentence expresses the simple positive feeling of being home after a long journey. There is no direct comparison implied, so the simple adjective good is appropriate.

Meaning of the words:

  • Good – positive, correct in this context.

  • Best – superlative, indicates the highest degree, not suitable here.

  • Much good – grammatically incorrect, does not fit.

  • Better – comparative, implies comparison which is not present in the sentence.

Correct word: Good, because it simply conveys the pleasant feeling of being home.

Final Sentence: After coming from a long journey he said, “It feels so good to be home.”

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
