took off
went upwards
flew up
No improvement
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: A. took off
The other options are:
- B. went upwards: This is not as strong as “soared”. “Soared” suggests that the rocket went up quickly and with great force.
- C. flew up: This is also not as strong as “soared”. “Soared” suggests that the rocket went up in a graceful and majestic way.
- D. No improvement: This is not correct. The sentence is improved by using the word “soared”.
The word “soared” is a more specific and descriptive word than the other options. It suggests that the rocket went up quickly and with great force, in a graceful and majestic way.
