Question

Find the synonym of the underlined word.
The officer compelled the suspect to lead him to the scene of the crime.

• A. Allowed
• B. Hired
• C. Beseeched
• D. Forced
• E. Helped

Answer 1

The correct option is D Forced

'Compelled' means to force or oblige (someone) to do something.

"a sense of duty compelled Harry to answer her questions"

Thus, in this sentence, the officer compelled or forced the subject to lead him to the scene of the crime.

Hence, option D is correct and the other options are not because they do not provide the correct answer.
