poisonous
unlawful
intoxicating
cheap
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: B. unlawful.
The word “illicit” means “unlawful” or “illegal”. In this case, the factory was manufacturing liquor without a license, which is against the
law.The other options are incorrect because:
- Poisonous: Liquor is not poisonous unless it is contaminated.
- Intoxicating: Liquor is intoxicating, but this is not why the factory was shut down.
- Cheap: The price of liquor is not relevant to whether or not it is legal.
