Question

read the sentence. the large diner with all the fixings surfeited my meal plan. which word means surfeit?
a. satiate
b. postpone
c. satisfy
d. ease

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the meaning of "surfeit" and the options. "Surfeit" means to overindulge or satisfy to excess.

• Option A: "satiate" means to satisfy (a desire or appetite) to the full, often to excess, which matches "surfeit".
• Option B: "postpone" means to delay, which is unrelated.
• Option C: "satisfy" is a more general term, while "surfeit" implies excess, so "satiate" is a better match.
• Option D: "ease" means to make less difficult or tense, which is unrelated.

Answer:

A. satiate
