Word Knowledge

 

As an ASVAB tutor, I present ASVAB vocabulary words in each session I teach.

Yesterday I presented an ASVAB vocabulary word to help review for the Word Knowledge section of the ASVAB.

The question is:

What does obliterated mean?

  1. Destroyed
  2. Liberated
  3. Oblivious
  4. Illiterate

The video presents my talking cat (thanks to an app).

“These are the only birds I’m allowed to spend time with after I obliterated all the birds in the backyard, but I’m a cat, I just can’t help killing every bird I meet.” In watching this video that presents the vocabulary word in context, it can be seen that obliterated means destroyed.

The correct answer is Choice A. destroyed.
