answer explanation

<p data-start="280" data-end="480">The correct collocation is<strong> (A) terms.</strong>&nbsp; The phrase "in terms of," which means "with respect to" or "regarding." This is the only option that makes the sentence natural and grammatically correct.<br></p><p data-start="482" data-end="611"><br data-start="498" data-end="501">The restaurant review rated the Cactus Club highly in terms of its menu selection as well as its atmosphere.</p><p data-start="613" data-end="991"><br data-start="627" data-end="630">(B) basis. "In basis of" is incorrect. The correct phrase would be "on the basis of," which does not fit this blank.<br data-start="746" data-end="749">(C) regard. The phrase should be "with regard to," not "in regard of," so it is ungrammatical here.<br data-start="848" data-end="851">(D) way. The phrase "in the way of" usually means "in the form of," not "with respect to," so it does not fit the meaning of the sentence.</p>
