Hello Monika

I think this must be an error in the test because "enclose" wouldn't fit here in my opinion, too. "Disclose" would be another option but of those given I'd have chosen "show" myself.

Moderators: Can someone confirm this or enlighten us, why it is enclose??

Hi L.L.
I agree with you. The correct answer should be 'show'(in the meaning of 'to express')

[Yankee]

I agree. The correct answer should be 'show'.
