Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word:
On his sudden demise, my emotions were so complicated that it was ____________ how I felt.

• A. unreasonable
• B. impossible
• C. indecent
• D. unimaginable
• E. inexplicable

Answer 1

The correct option is E inexplicable

Option E: 'Inexplicable' means 'unable to be explained or understood'. Here the person 'I' was unable to understand how he felt "on his demise".

Hence this word forms a complete meaningful sentence and option E is correct.

Option A: 'Unreasonable' means 'not cooperative, not guided by good reason'.

Option B: 'Impossible' means 'not possible, not able to occur or exist'.

Option C: 'Indecent' means 'not appropriate or fitting'.

Option D: 'Unimaginable' means 'difficult or impossible to imagine or comprehend'.

These words are not the most suitable to the sentence in meaning and relevance.

Hence options A, B, C and D are incorrect.
