Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

Have you ______ with the difficulties you might have to face?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. reckoned.

  • The given blank is followed by the word 'with'. If we use reckoned in the given blank we form the phrasal verb reckoned with which means 'to take into consideration'.

  • This fits the context of the sentence where the subject (you) is being asked if they have considered the difficulties they might face.

  • The word reckoned is the most appropriate word according to the meaning in the given context.

Let's see the meaning of other words:

  • Pondered: to think about something carefully or for a long time.
  • Considered: to think about something carefully, often before making a decision.
  • Discussed: to talk or write about something seriously or formally.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4 i.e. reckoned.
