Rise, raise, arouse #1 (permalink) Thu May 22, 2008 20:08 pm   Rise, raise, arouse
 

Hello,

'The funny animal (38)_____ her spirits a little but
then it disappeared...'

38. a) raised b) rose c) arose d) roused

According to the examiners, the correct answer is 'D'. Why so?

Here 'roused' means 'excited' which fits the sentence.
