Have you given up the idea of accepting the new assignment? A. postponed B. adopted C. amended D. abandoned

The correct answer is D. abandoned.

To abandon something means to give up on it completely. In this case, the person is giving up on the idea of accepting the new assignment.

The other options are not correct because they do not mean to give up completely.

• Postponed means to delay something until a later time.
• Adopted means to take something as one’s own.
• Amended means to make changes to something.

I hope this helps!
