See, here’s the problem. “Sensitive” does mean that, but it doesn’t mean ONLY that. It means a lot of things. When you talk about somebody being “sensitive” to price, it means that they react strongly to price, or that price is important to them in decision-making. This is the devilish thing about English–it has a ton of words, and a lot of them have multiple meanings and nuances. You can only master this by reading.</p>
<p>In the example above, you have to know that complement and compliment are two different words. Although I have to say that a good writer would probably not use “commend” in that sentence–he would use “compliment” or “praise.” Are you sure it wasn’t “compliment?” In the second example, a, b, and e. result in non-sentences. No decent writer of English would ever use “was comprising of.” That couldn’t possibly be the answer. I don’t really like “comprised” in this sentence, either, but it’s the only possible answer. The more normal usage of that word would be in the phrase “was comprised of,” but that isn’t one of the choices.</p>

Again, this is why reading a lot is important. If you really have English prose in your head, you would hardly even need to think about this question. Yeah, sensitive to price. Check.</p>
