Answer options
Correct answer and explanation
Correct answer: light, illuminated
Explanation: Context: The sentence describes a bright fireworks display. The correct pair of words must logically fit the meaning — "so much ______ that the night sky was completely _______". ‘Light’ and ‘illuminated’ fit perfectly in both grammar and context. 1. refuse, detonated ❌ – makes no sense. 2. colour, decorated ❌ – grammatically and contextually wrong. 3. light, illuminated ✅ – correct; bright light made the sky glow. 4. noise, joyful ❌ – grammatically mismatched. Correct Sentence/Example Sentence: The fireworks display created so much light that the night sky was completely illuminated, almost as if it were the middle of the day.
