1. ________ your secret into my ear. I won't tell anyone. I promise!

Explanation

The word "whisper" best fits the context of the sentence. The speaker is asking someone to share a secret by speaking softly into their ear. The other options, such as "shrug," "eat," and "lick," do not make sense in this context and do not convey the act of sharing a secret.

3. You ..... your head.

Explanation

When you nod your head, you move it up and down in a gesture that typically indicates agreement, understanding, or acknowledgement. Nodding is a common non-verbal communication signal used to convey a positive response or affirmation.

Submit
4. You ..... your shoulders.

Explanation

The correct answer is "shrug". When you shrug your shoulders, you lift them slightly in a gesture of uncertainty, indifference, or lack of knowledge. This action is often used to express confusion or to indicate that you do not know the answer to a question.

Submit
5. You .... with your finger.

Explanation

When you point, you typically extend your finger or hand in a specific direction to indicate or draw attention to something.

Submit
6. You .... your hands.

Explanation

The word "wave" is the correct answer because it is the most appropriate action to perform with your hands out of the given options. Shrug, fold, scratch, and wag are all actions that can be done with hands, but they do not specifically involve waving. Waving refers to the action of moving your hand back and forth in a greeting or farewell gesture.

Submit
7. You ..... your ear.

Explanation

Scratching is a common action performed when there is an itch or irritation in the ear. It involves using the fingers or an object to rub or scrape the ear in order to alleviate the discomfort. Nodding, wagging, waving, and shrugging are not actions typically associated with addressing an itch or irritation in the ear.

Submit
8. You clench your .......

Explanation

When you clench your fist, you tightly close your hand by curling your fingers inward. This action is often associated with anger, frustration, or determination. Clenching your fist can be a physical response to intense emotions or a way to prepare for a physical confrontation. It is a common gesture used to symbolize strength, power, and resolve.

Submit
9. You .... your arms.

Explanation

The word "fold" is the only option that makes sense in the given sentence. The sentence is incomplete, but it implies that the subject is performing an action with their arms. Out of the given options, "fold" is the only verb that can be used with arms. The other options (shake, cross, raise, nod) do not specifically relate to arms. Therefore, "fold" is the correct answer.

Submit
10. We ______ hands before we began the meeting yesterday.

Explanation

The correct answer is "Shook." In this sentence, the verb "shook" is the past tense of the verb "shake." The sentence is describing an action that occurred in the past, specifically before the meeting started. The word "shook" is the correct past tense form of the verb "shake" to indicate the action of people clasping and moving their hands up and down as a greeting or agreement before the meeting began.
