“The voice reminded me a little of the way radio announcers used to introduce a piece of classical music or describe the progress of the Royal Family to Westminster Abbey on one of their royal occasions.”
I understand that the “progress” here means a ceremonial journey,but how can it be interchangeable with the word “advance”? Can “advance” mean ceremonial journey also?
Apparently in my study book, it insists that “progress” in the context means “advance”, and the reason given is that “the word pgress in this context means a ceremonial journey”, which I wasn’t able to relate to how it would make “advance” a suitable synonym for “progress”.
