Which word is most appropriate for 'to ask for advice or information from someone'?

• A. Ignore
• B. Overlook
• C. Attend
• D. Consult

Answer: (D)

The main idea here is choosing a word that means to ask for advice or information from someone who can help. The best fit is consult. To consult someone is to seek information or advice from them because they have knowledge or expertise, or to refer to a source for guidance. For example, you might consult a teacher about a difficult math problem or consult a doctor about health options.

The other options don’t match that sense of seeking guidance. Ignore means to pay no attention to something on purpose, which isn’t about asking for help. Overlook means to miss or ignore something, or to fail to notice. Attend means to be present at or to deal with something, which isn’t about requesting advice.
