Can someone explain why is choice B wrong? Didnt understand why pleasure suits better than joy..
Thanks!
Hi valentinsky
Here choosing the pleasure vs Joy is mainly subjected to time difference.
As he activity was in past and momentarily, we prefer pleasure

Does GMAT really offer such questions that demand a good command over vocabulary?

Posted from my mobile device

Hi neelgmat
Generally this kind of vocabulary is not tested in GMAT.
