<p>Because he felt intimidated in his new position, he was ------- divulging his frank opinions of company proposals.</p>
<li>scurrilous about</li>
<li>candid in</li>
<li>chary of</li>
<li>fervid about</li>
<li>precipitate in</li>
</ol>
<p>Difficult words in the sentance (intimidate and divulge) and really difficult answer choices.
There is no way to answer this if you dont know the meaning of the words.</p>
<p>well you should be able to know most of the words if you are seriously taking SAT though… n ooffense, because I think most of them are in WordSmart…</p>
<p>I answered it correctly.Just finished the Barron`s 3500 list</p>
<p>For those of us who didn’t see the QOTD, what’s the correct answer? I think I know, but I’d like to confirm.</p>
<p>Edit: Never mind; I went on the site and found the answer. Yippee, I was right!!</p>
<p>Narrowed it down between scurrilous and chary and took a lucky guess.</p>
<p>Chary reminded me of wary, so I picked that.</p>
<p>I’m interested in knowing just how many times “chary” appears in recent academic and news publications.</p>
<p>FFS.</p>
<p>I did what jamesford and chronic future did. Not sure if there’s any relation to wary but I got it right.</p>
<p>“Chary reminded me of wary, so I picked that.”</p>
<p>hahah, same!</p>
<p>I had an idea what chary was, but this is how I did it:</p>
<p>scurrilous - sort of like scurry, and he’s clearly not hurrying to talk about himself.
candid - blunt, uncensored, which he’s the opposite of
chary -
fervid - fervid is eager, but if you didn’t know, you could think of a fever where you’re sort of rushing to get better lol
precipitate - “rain” haha, sort of like open up, which he isn’t doing</p>
<p>B, D, and E were clearly wrong, I was pretty sure A was wrong, and I had no idea what C was, so I put that.</p>
<p>hahaha i got it right! 
deff not the most difficult SC qn</p>
<p>So has anyone here ever used the word chary before? None of the others are especially arcane, but chary…</p>
<p>I just eliminated the ones that I knew didn’t make sense. This question’s easy peasy.</p>
<p>How i got it right ?
I knew i had to pick a word meaning ‘‘afraid ,wary or sth like that’’ and while thinking i realized when i had been reviewing the Barron`s 3500 list there were a lot of words with first letter ‘‘c’’ that definitely meant cautious,circumspect,careful.Even these 3 examples start with ‘‘c’’ ;] Then i remembered what ‘‘chary’’ means and got it</p>
