Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
Hitler’s concentration camps _____________ the bodies of the dead captives subsequently.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. mutilated.
-
"Mutilated" means to damage or disfigure severely, which accurately describes the horrific treatment of the bodies.
-
The other options do not fit the context:
- "Conspired" means to plot or plan secretly, which is not relevant here.
- "Exaggerated" means to overstate, which doesn’t fit the context of physical damage.
- "Resounded" means to echo or make a loud noise, which is unrelated to the treatment of bodies.
