From the words lettered A to D below, choose the word or group of words that is nearest in meaning to the underlined word as it is used in the passage. The perpetual smile of the little girl was perpetual.
Explanation
“Perpetual” means never stopping or lasting forever. “Endless” is the closest.
“Recurring” means happening again and again with breaks, so it is not as close. “Charming” and “broad” describe the smile, not its duration.
