Question 138

The unfinished count

Volunteers began counting bicycles passing a junction. Heavy rain forced them to stop after twenty minutes, but they agreed to continue the count the following morning.

Their draft record says:

‘The count was abandoned after twenty minutes and will continue tomorrow.’

Choose one word to replace ‘abandoned’ so that the record is accurate. Explain why your choice fits the whole sentence.
