Today's Business English Vocabulary Challenge:
Choose the correct word to complete the sentence.
People who have physically _____ jobs retire earlier.
A. stressed
B. taxing
C. hardly
"Hardly" is an adverb, not an adjective. It means "almost not" and does not describe a type of job.
"Stressed" describes a person who is under pressure, not the nature of the job itself. You can say "stressful jobs" or "stressed employees," but not "stressed jobs."
"Taxing" is an adjective that describes jobs that require a lot of physical effort.
Taxing jobs = demanding jobs
The correct answer is B. taxing.
