With a thundering roar the huge rocket soared up from the launching pad. A. took off B. went upwards C. flew up D. No improvement

[amp_mcq option1=”took off” option2=”went upwards” option3=”flew up” option4=”No improvement” correct=”option1″]

The correct answer is: A. took off

The other options are:

  • B. went upwards: This is not as strong as “soared”. “Soared” suggests that the rocket went up quickly and with great force.
  • C. flew up: This is also not as strong as “soared”. “Soared” suggests that the rocket went up in a graceful and majestic way.
  • D. No improvement: This is not correct. The sentence is improved by using the word “soared”.

The word “soared” is a more specific and descriptive word than the other options. It suggests that the rocket went up quickly and with great force, in a graceful and majestic way.
