Choose the word or set of words that, when inserted in the sentence, best fits the meaning of the sentence as a whole.
Unlike the politician, who must spend his or her energy in public show or endless meetings, the artist needs ------- for significant efforts.
A. approval
B. prudence
C. motivation
D. solitude
E. perseverance
Answer is D
Here's Why:
The word “unlike” suggests that there is a key difference between politicians and artists. Since politicians must spend a good deal of time surrounded by other people, the missing term must contrast with this behavior. “Solitude” logically completes the sentence because it refers to the state of being alone.
