The ______ behavior of the demonstrators became even more apparent when they all chained themselves together when the authorities came on scene.
Answer(s): D
Choices A and B indicate lazy or not genuine, respectively, which is not the case, or they wouldn't be there demonstrating. Choice C grammatically fits, but the individuality of the act becomes lost when chaining them together. Choice E, "cohesive, " or sticking together certainly fits and is correct; however, this is not the best choice. Choice D, "recalcitrant, " is the best choice as it includes "stubbornly resisting authority, " which further matches the action following the arrival of the authorities.

Choice C, "excited, " is just as bad as too mature and shaking. This only leave Choice E, "dexterous, " or someone with skillful hands.
