4. "...and had to ___________________ in Mexico City."

Explanation

The sentence suggests that the person had to do something in Mexico City. Out of the given options, "stop" is the most appropriate choice as it implies that the person had to pause or halt their activity in Mexico City. The other options, such as rest, eat, and sleep, do not convey the same meaning as the word "stop" in this context.

Submit
5. "You'll never believe how my trip has been! First, I _________________ my passport!"

Explanation

The person is saying that they had an eventful trip and they are about to share the details. They start by saying "First, I _________________ my passport!" The word "forgot" fits perfectly in the sentence and makes sense in the context. It implies that the person unintentionally left or neglected their passport somewhere, which caused some trouble during their trip.

Submit
6. "I was stuck in Mexico City for almost a whole ____________."

Explanation

The correct answer is "day" because the sentence suggests that the person was stuck in Mexico City for a significant amount of time. "Week" and "night" are too long and too short respectively to match the context. "Hour" is also too short and doesn't convey the idea of being stuck for a long period. Therefore, "day" is the most appropriate choice.
