1 reveal
2 unravelled
3 interpret
4 recognise

Grandma could not *figure* *out* how to open the palm-sized, black device.

The phrase, \"could not\", cannot go with past tense. So, cannot be \"unravelled\" , because it is in past tense form, although out of the (4), \"unravel\" is the most suitable (approriate), because \"unravel\" means \" to solve, to work out \" how to use the device (in this context)

So, to clarify
For choice (2), was it \"unravel\" or \"unravelled\" ?

If \"unravel\", then answer is (2)

Or is it even though they use past tense \"unravelled\", they actually mean \"unravel\" ?

Because (1), (3) and (4) -
Do not match the meaning at all[/quote]

Mine put 4. Recognise. What is the correct answer?

Unravel[/quote]Yes, I will choose 'unravel' if the option was given as unravel & not unravell-ed. The rest of the words have a similar meaning but not suitable to replace the word \"figure out\" in this context.

class, had confirmed that the printing inside the Psle booklet this morning was \"unravel\" , not \"unravelled\". Present tense, not past tense.
So, your friend who gave u the terminology in past tense was wrong, right from the very beginning


Reveal : is to show
Interpret : is to decipher
Recognise : is familiarity

none of the above 3, fit the grandma case, except \"unravel\"

Unravel: is to solve, work out

Answer : unravel
