Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

She reduced the volume because the ​​​​​​_____________ music was becoming too much for her.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. constant. 

  • The word "constant" in this context suggests that the music was unvarying, continuous, or persistent. It was likely playing at the same level or intensity without significant changes, making it overwhelming for the person.
  • "Concede" means to admit defeat, which doesn't fit the context of the sentence. 
  • "Competent" means having the necessary skill or ability, which is unrelated to context.
  • "Content" means satisfied or pleased, which doesn't fit the context. 
  • The sentence suggests that the music was consistently loud, prompting her to reduce the volume. 

Hence, the chosen option will be the correct answer.
