Which choice completes the text with the most logical and precise word or phrase?

A

incomplete

B

successful

C

famous

D

forgotten

Correct Answer: A

Choice A is the best answer. The passage states they "could not proceed to the next phase," indicating the project was unfinished. "Incomplete" means not finished, directly matching this stalled progress.

Choice B is incorrect because "successful" contradicts not being able to proceed. Choice C is incorrect because "famous" refers to recognition, not completion status. Choice D is incorrect because "forgotten" doesn't relate to the budget issue described.
