Identify the word from the passage which means nearly the same as 'force' (Verb).

  • A.Impose
  • B.Inflict
  • C.Provide
  • D.Offer

Answer: A

The word is Impose.

The passage says the gentleman does never impose himself upon others. To impose is to force oneself or something else on a person, which is the sense of the verb to force.

Inflict is close, but it means to cause something unpleasant such as pain or damage to be suffered, and the passage uses it with pain (never inflicts pain). Provide and offer mean to supply or hold out something, which is the opposite of forcing it on someone.
