Question

No teenager just learning to drive can bank the turns with professional drivers at the Daytona 500.
What is the meaning of the word bank as it is used in this sentence from the passage?
A) to put out a small campfire
B) to drive on an inclined curve of a racetrack
C) the rising ground bordering a lake, river, or sea
D) a place of business that takes care of money and money issues

Answer 1

Correct answer: In this sentence, the word bank means B. to drive on an inclined curve of a racetrack.

Explanation: This is the correct answer because this sentence talks about a car race as it talks about "turns" "professional drivers" and " Daytona 500", which is probably the name of the race. So, the other meanings are irrelevant in this context.
