The only __________ with the proposal is that it is a little expensive.

The correct answer is
glitch

Contextual Analysis

The sentence describes a proposal where the only negative point mentioned is its cost ("a little expensive"). We need to find a word that represents this minor fault or problem.

Evaluating Word Choices

  • glitch: Refers to a minor, often temporary, fault or malfunction. This fits the context of a proposal being "a little expensive" as it's presented as the sole, minor issue.
  • blunder: Means a significant, careless mistake. This is too strong for a minor cost issue.
  • hardship: Implies severe difficulty or suffering. This is inappropriate for a slightly high price.
  • dilemma: A situation requiring a choice between two undesirable options. This doesn't fit the context of a flaw in the proposal itself.

Selecting the Best Fit

The word glitch best describes the minor problem ("a little expensive") associated with the proposal. It indicates a small flaw without implying a major failure.

Therefore, the completed sentence is: "The only glitch with the proposal is that it is a little expensive."
