In o____ words, if we delegate most of the tasks, it will save a lot of time.

• A. Short
• B. Brief
• C. Simple
• D. Other

Answer: (D)

The key idea here is using a phrase that signals you’re restating or clarifying what was just said. “In other words” is the natural choice because it introduces a restatement in different terms, making the idea clearer. When you plug in other into the blank, the sentence reads smoothly: “In other words, if we delegate most of the tasks, it will save a lot of time.” This shows you’re rephrasing the point to emphasize the same outcome.

Other options wouldn’t fit the common idiom here and would feel off with the structure “In o____ words.” They would imply a different nuance (like a brief summary) that doesn’t match the intended restatement.
