A "likely place" means that it is a "likely" or "possible" place even "probable". What word best fits my explanation?
I agree with Carpe_Diem. When you have a specific citation you need help with, please give us the author and title. I have no idea what book you are reading. I can look at pg. 130 in any of 1,600 books on my shelves and not find what you are reading.
"Promising" is correct.
To find the answer to your question, it would be helpful to refer to page 130 of the source material you mentioned. Please take a moment to locate and read the relevant passage and its surrounding context. Once you have done this, you can identify the characteristics or descriptions provided on that page that can help determine the meaning of a "likely place." Based on these details, you should be able to select the most suitable word from the given options.
