Question
Regrettably [A] /Regretfully [B],I have to decline your invitation. I am drawn to the poetic, sensual [A] / sensuous [B]quality of her paintings. He was besides [A] / beside [B] himself with rage when I told him what I had done. After brushing against a stationary [A] / stationery [B] truck my car turned turtle. As the water began to rise over [A] / above [B]the danger mark, the signs of an imminent flood were clear.
The correct sequence is: ___
Answer: Option C
:
C
One can decline an invitation "regretfully" and not "regrettably". I am drawn to "sensuous" (giving pleasure to intellectual senses) and not "sensual" (physically passionate) quality of her paintings. He was "beside" himself (meaning unable to control himself) and not besides (in addition to or apart from) the rage. "Stationary" is the correct word because a truck can be stationary or not moving but not stationery or writing material. Water rises "above" the danger mark not "over".
