Practice Question
Marco won a trophy each of the three times he competed in the junior tennis tournament, but still the first prize eluded him.
Answer Choices
- A: eluded
- B: alluded
- C: elided
- D: allied
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is 'eluded' because it means 'escaped' or 'avoided,' fitting the context of Marco not achieving the first prize. 'Alluded' means to refer to something, 'elided' means to omit, and 'allied' means to join, none of which fit the context.
