Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is D. circumvented.
To circumvent something is to avoid or get around it. In this case, the woman was able to avoid being found by the people who were looking for her.
The other options are not correct because they do not mean the same thing as circumvent.
- Defeated means to win against someone or something. In this case, the woman did not win against the people who were looking for her.
- Assist means to help someone or something. In this case, the woman did not help the people who were looking for her.
- Foil means to prevent something from happening. In this case, the woman did not prevent the people from finding her.
