Someone who is FRUSTRATED/ANNOYED is?

  • A. Exacerbated
  • B. Transient
  • C. Lithe
  • D. Terse
Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The word 'exacerbated' means to make a problem, bad situation, or negative feeling worse. If someone is frustrated or annoyed, they are likely feeling worse due to a particular situation or circumstance.
Choice B, 'transient,' means temporary or short-lived, which does not directly relate to the feeling of being frustrated or annoyed. Choice C, 'lithe,' means thin, supple, and graceful, which is not synonymous with being frustrated or annoyed. Choice D, 'terse,' means brief and to the point, which is unrelated to the context of feeling frustrated or annoyed.
