Question

Fill in the blank with a suitable option:

George always wants things quickly. He's got no __________.

• A. country
• B. patience
• C. language
• D. friend

Answer 1

The correct option is B patience

The first statement indicates that George is always in a hurry. Thus, it is clear that he cannot tolerate delays. Thus, the correct answer is the opposite of hurry.

Option A is incorrect. Country has no relation to hurry. Thus, it does not fit in the blank at all.

Option B is correct. Patience means 'ability to tolerate delays' and is the opposite of hurry. Since George is always in a hurry of getting things, we can say that he has no 'patience'.

Option C is incorrect. Language does not fit in the blank. Also, it has no relation to hurry.

Option D is incorrect. Friend is also not the opposite of hurry and does not fit well in the blank.
