John got very _ because Marcy broke history
Correct answer: B. Upset
- A. Hungry
- B. Upset
- C. Sleepy
- D. Slow
Explanation
The sentence should read: "John got very upset because Marcy broke his toy."However, the sentence says "broke history", which doesn't make sense. I assume it's a typo and should be "broke his toy" or something similar.If we consider the correct sentence, "John got very upset because Marcy broke his toy":- "Upset" describes a strong feeling of sadness, anger, or disappointment, which is a reasonable reaction to someone breaking something valuable or important to you.
