Exercice 1
'Amidst this ocean of mediocrity...'.

From the list below, choose the term closest in meaning with amidst:
'Amidst this ocean of mediocrity...'.

From the list below, choose the term closest in meaning with amidst:
This is an incorrect choice. The term 'despite' introduces a contrast within a sentence and is synonymous with 'even though'. Example: I am going to invite her to my party, despite the fact that she didn't invite me to her wedding. The terms 'among' and 'despite' are not similar in meaning.
This is an incorrect choice. The term 'considering' means 'taking into account'. Example: She did really well coming 5th in the running race, considering she doesn't have any legs. The terms 'amidst' and 'considering' are not similar in meaning.
This is the correct choice. The term 'amidst' (or amid) means 'in the middle of', 'surrounded by' or 'among' (also 'amongst'). 'Among' (and 'amongst') shares a similar meaning with 'amidst'. Belinda is saying that 'in the middle of' all the mediocre films currently at the cinema, she has discovered a good one (Decapitated Heads IX). Grammatical Note: 'among' and 'amongst' can't directly replace 'amidst' in Belinda's expression. Although these terms are synonymous, 'amidst' is often followed by a noun which cannot be separated or individually counted (a collective body). 'Among' and 'amongst' are used in reference to countable quantities, and so we couldn't say 'among the ocean of mediocrity'.
This is an incorrect choice. The term 'besides' means 'apart from'. Example: I don't want to go shopping. Besides, I don't have any money so I couldn't go even if I wanted to. Do not confuse the term 'besides' with the adverb 'beside' which refers to location. Example: 'Come and sit beside me you gorgeous man!'
