Discussion
Choose the most appropriate word from the options given below to complete the following sentence:
Given the seriousness of the situation that he had to face, his ___ was impressive.
Answer: D
The best word is nonchalance.
The sentence praises his calm in a serious situation. Nonchalance means a calm, relaxed, unconcerned manner, and 'his nonchalance was impressive' fits the contrast with 'the seriousness of the situation'.
Beggary means extreme poverty, which would not be impressive and has no link to facing a serious situation. Nomenclature is a system of naming. Jealousy is resentment of another's success, which nobody would call impressive in this context.
