One word can be used to successfully complete all three of the sentences below (as in, the same word fits all three sentences, though the meaning/nuance of the word could be different in each case).

Can you guess the missing word for these sentences?

 

Sealed  They heard the news of their cancelled holiday with .................... hearts.

Sealed  There is a .................... penalty for people who submit their final assignments after the due date.  

Sealed  Do you think Rebecca can manage to carry that .................... rucksack for an entire day of hiking?

 

Good luck finding the word!

~ Jason

Hi Bae Sung-han,

I believe you are right, I will say the word that is missing is HEAVY.

I agree with Bae Sung-han and Marie. The missing word must be HEAVY.
