The word that fits

Fill in the blank:

The witness gave a ______ account, omitting nothing of importance.

Show the answer and the worked solution

Correct answer: B.

meticulous

Worked solution

  1. Omitting nothing of importance means the account was thorough.
  2. Meticulous means showing great attention to detail.
  3. Vague, hurried and biased all suggest the opposite.

Answer: meticulous.

The idea

The clause after the blank usually defines it. Read the whole sentence before choosing rather than stopping at the gap.

Shortcut. Look for the opposite of 'omitting': vague and hurried both imply leaving things out, and biased is about fairness, not completeness. Meticulous is the only word about thoroughness.

Common trap. "biased" — witness accounts are often called biased, so it reads naturally, but bias concerns slant, not completeness, and the sentence praises the account for leaving nothing out.
