Question

Out of the given alternatives, choose the one which best expresses the meaning of the italicized part of the sentence.
The country's resources should be judiciously used.

• A. sparingly
• B. reasonably
• C. adequately
• D. immensely

Answer 1

The correct option is B reasonably

The highlighted word means 'wisely' or 'sensibly'.

Option B is correct. 'Reasonably' can also means 'sensibly'. Thus, it has the required meaning and is the correct answer.

Options A, C and D are incorrect. They do not have the required meaning.

'Sparingly' means 'without wasting', 'adequately' means 'sufficiently' and 'immensely' means 'to a great extent'.
