Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Answer: pride
Explanation:
pride — A pride is the established collective noun for a group of lions.
shoal — Refers to a group of fish, so it does not apply to lions.
convoy — Used for groups of vehicles or ships traveling together, not animals.
flock — Applies to birds or sometimes sheep; it is not the correct term for lions.
Therefore, "pride" best completes the sentence: "I chanced to see a pride of lions walking through the forest."
