[amp_mcq option1=”benign” option2=”infructuous” option3=”churlish” option4=”wasteful” correct=”option1″]
The correct answer is A. benign.
Benign means kind, generous, or forgiving. It is the opposite of cruel, harsh, or unforgiving.
The other options are:
- Infructuous: not producing fruit or results.
- Churlish: rude, ill-mannered, or surly.
- Wasteful: spending or using more than is necessary or useful.
In the context of the question, “It was really a gracious occasion for me,” the speaker is expressing gratitude for a kind or generous act. The other options do not convey this meaning.
