Read the persuasive excerpt.Peak’s Point promises not only the most ____ rides in town, but also the best bargain for your wallet. Come on down and ride the new Mountain of Madness! You will be held breathless in more ways than one . . . that is our guarantee to you!

The excerpt advertises an amusement-park ride called the Mountain of Madness and says riders will be “held breathless,” suggesting excitement and intensity. “Thrilling” best matches that persuasive, high-adventure tone. “Pleasant,” “enjoyable,” and “satisfying” are more general and do not emphasize the rides’ excitement as strongly.
