Question

Choose the word which best expresses the meaning of the italicized bold part of the sentence:
It was his practice to go for a walk every morning.

• A. convention
• B. habit
• C. fashion
• D. rule

Answer 1

The correct option is B habit

Option B: 'Practice' means 'something that is usually or regularly done, often as a habit, tradition or custom'.

'Habit' means 'something that you do often and regularly'.

This word means the same as the given italicized word. Hence option B is correct.

Option A: 'Convention' refers to 'the behaviour that is considered acceptable or polite to most members of a society'.

Option C: 'Fashion' means 'a popular or the latest style of clothing, hair, or behaviour'.

Option D: 'Rule' means 'a code of conduct and discipline'.

These words do not mean the same as the given word 'practice'.

So, options A, C and D are wrong.
