It is hoped that the wounded soldier will ………… better soon.

go
get
fall
turn
Answer

Oh, bless your heart for caring about that poor wounded soldier! You want to know which verb to use to express your well-wishes, don't you?

The correct answer is get. 'Get' is the most suitable verb in this context, as it implies improvement or recovery. So, the sentence should read: 'It is hoped that the wounded soldier will get better soon.'

Now, let's quickly review why the other options don't quite fit:

  • go would imply movement or action, which doesn't really make sense in this context.
  • fall would be a bit of a disaster, wouldn't it? We want the soldier to get better, not fall further into illness!
  • turn could work in some contexts, but it's not the most natural fit here.

So, there you have it! I hope this helps, and I'm sending all my best wishes to that soldier for a speedy recovery!
