collected
dispersed
spread
disappeared
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is A. collected.
To collect means to gather or assemble something. In this case, the crowd gathered quickly when the police came. This could
mean that the people were curious about what was happening, or that they were afraid of the police.The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately describe what happened in the sentence.
- To disperse means to scatter or spread out. This is not what happened in the sentence, as the crowd gathered together, not scattered.
- To spread means to extend or become wider or larger. This is also not what happened in the sentence, as the crowd did not become wider or larger, but rather gathered together.
- To disappear means to cease to be visible. This is also not what happened in the sentence, as the crowd did not cease to be visible, but rather gathered together.
