Question

Match the words in bold in the sentences so these basic meanings: happy, annoyed, tired, bad, sad, angry, worried.

Answer

  1. tired
  2. happy
  3. angry
  4. worried (though students may also try to argue angry – because when you are stressed, you’re more likely to then get angry more easily ... or sad, because stress often results in depression. The dictionary definition, though, is worried / nervous to the point that you can’t relax)
  5. sad (sometimes upset may also mean the person was angry, but here clearly ‘sad’)
  6. bad
  7. happy
  8. sad
  9. happy
  10. annoyed (dictionary definition is annoyed or bored with something you feel you have accepted for too long)
