<p>Before being put on the market, all toy products are thoroughly <strong>inspected</strong> for safety.</p><p>The correct answer is <strong>(C) inspected</strong>.</p><p>In this sentence, the verb "inspected" is the most appropriate choice to complete the sentence. The word "thoroughly" suggests that a careful examination is being conducted. The verb "inspected" means to examine or scrutinize something carefully, which fits the context of ensuring safety for toy products before they are made available for sale.</p><p>The other options, (A) conformed, (B) imposed, and (D) distributed, do not fit the context of the sentence. "Conformed" means to comply with rules or standards, but it does not convey the idea of examination or scrutiny. "Imposed" means to force something upon someone or to establish a rule, which does not make sense in this context. "Distributed" means to give out or deliver something, which does not match the action of examining toy products for safety.</p>
