medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option B
Grammar & Contextual Explanation
In the context of the passage, the sentence talks about an individual experiencing a disease. The most appropriate word to fill the gap in this context is "contracts." When an individual contracts a disease, it means that they have acquired or become infected with the disease. Option B, "contracts," fits well with the meaning conveyed in the sentence.
The other options:
A. acquires: While this is a possible synonym, "contracts" is more commonly used in the context of diseases.
C. contacts: The correct verb in this context is "contracts" rather than "contacts."
D. develops: While individuals can develop diseases, the sentence is more focused on the acquisition or contraction of a disease.
Therefore, option B, "contracts," is the most suitable choice.
