Select the option that can be used as a one-word substitute for the given group of words.

To go through an area making a lot of noise and causing damage

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

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

Rampage refers to a violent, uncontrollable, and destructive action, often involving noise and damage, which directly matches the given phrase "to go through an area making a lot of noise and causing damage."

Other options:

Brutality refers to cruelty or savagery, but it's not specifically about causing noise or destruction in an area.

Cacophony refers to a harsh, discordant mixture of sounds, but it doesn’t involve causing physical damage.

Violence refers to physical force used to harm, but it's broader and doesn't specifically capture the idea of causing noise and damage while moving through an area.
