one day, the baker saw a “bread contest” sign. “i can win this!” he said.
he made bread dough and put it in the oven. but the dough started to cling to the pan, as if it were glued on. the outside was burned, and the inside was uncooked
what does “cling” mean in this passage?
to heat slowly
to stay soft
to stick together
to mix well

Explanation:

The context clue "as if it were glued on" suggests a sticking - together action. "To heat slowly" (related to temperature change), "to stay soft" (related to texture without sticking connotation), and "to mix well" (about combining ingredients) are not in line with the "glued - on" context.

Answer:

to stick together
