Solution
The correct option is D inherited When his aunt died, he 'inherited' a lot of money from her. The term 'inherited' means to 'receive money or property as an heir at the death of the previous holder'. In this context, the word 'inherited' completes the sentence properly. So, option B is correct and the others are not because they do not provide the correct information.
