For this question Mills Field Sounds like a basic name so I could guess for blank 2 would mean boring.

But for the first blank,I am confused between react to and relish

It’s from from verbal problem section practice

I guess the answers must be revile and humdrum - those are the only logical combo

what is the logic behind revile

what do you think?

I thought like she said committee could settle on something less boring, so I thought like she doesn’t like the name much, so I chose “relish” in the answer.

We need a contrast. If she didn’t relish it and she had something critical to say “pick something less boring”, that’s not a contrast.

ohh got it, you’re right, I forgot “though” is creating a contrast here.
