'His arguments were forceful, coherent, .............'

Choose the word similar in meaning to the underlined one.

  • A.calculating
  • B.reasonable
  • C.crazy
  • D.witless

Answer: B

The word similar in meaning to 'coherent' is reasonable.

Coherent arguments are logical and consistent: their parts fit together clearly and make sense. 'Reasonable', in the sense of sensible and logically sound, is the closest in meaning among the options.

'Crazy' and 'witless' mean foolish or senseless, the opposite of coherent. 'Calculating' means scheming or shrewdly self-interested, which describes a person's motives, not the clarity and logic of an argument.
