He was admonished for the delay.

[amp_mcq option1=”dismissed” option2=”admired” option3=”censured” option4=”advised” correct=”option3″]

The correct answer is C. censured.

To admonish someone is to scold them or criticize them for something they have done wrong. Censure is a formal expression of disapproval, typically by a public body or a person in authority.

The other options are incorrect because they do not mean the same thing as admonish.

  • To dismiss someone is to fire them from their job.
  • To admire someone is to think highly of them and to respect them.
  • To advise someone is to give them advice or guidance.
