The match was a … for Brazil because their team was stronger than the opposing team.

Analyze the question The sentence says Brazil's team was stronger than the opposing team. We need a word for a match that was very easy for Brazil to win.

Explain the concept This is a vocabulary-in-context question. The clue is "because their team was stronger," which tells us the match was easy for Brazil.

Check each option

• A. profit: This means financial gain. It doesn't describe an easy match.
• B. giveaway: This means something given free, or a revealing slip. It isn't the normal word for an easy win. ("Giveaway" is sometimes used informally for an easy gift of points, but it is not standard here.)
• C. walkover: This means an easy, one-sided victory, or a win with little or no opposition. It fits the sentence perfectly.
• D. defeat: This means a loss. It contradicts the idea that Brazil was stronger.

Answer The best word is walkover, so the sentence reads: "The match was a walkover for Brazil because their team was stronger than the opposing team.

Tip Link the word to its picture: if a team can simply "walk over" its opponent, the win is easy. When you see "because they were stronger" in a sentence, look for words meaning "easy win" such as walkover or pushover.
