Q1Select the ANTONYM of the word CONCEAL. Historians refused to conceal the archival findings.
Conceal means to keep something hidden or secret. Disclose means to make it known or reveal it, which is the antonym. Hide, mask and bury all continue the sense of covering up.
Q2The clerk grew irate when the queue stalled for nearly an hour. Select the ANTONYM of the word IRATE.
Irate means very angry. Calm, meaning free from agitation or anger, is the antonym. Furious, angry, and agitated remain on the same emotional side as irate.
Q3Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the word 'opaque' as used in the sentence. The auditor found the company's accounts deliberately opaque.
Opaque means not allowing light to pass through, or figuratively not clear or open to scrutiny. Transparent means clear enough to see through, or open and easy to understand, and is therefore the antonym. Murky, obscure, and ambiguous all lean toward unclear meaning rather than the opposite of opacity.
Q4Select the ANTONYM of the word 'temporary'.
Temporary means lasting only for a limited period. Permanent means lasting indefinitely or for a very long time, which is the antonym. Brief, fleeting, and short-lived all stay within the same short-duration sense as temporary.
Q5In the sentence below, choose the ANTONYM of 'timid'. The young batsman looked timid against the fast bowlers.
Timid means lacking courage or easily frightened. Bold means brave and confident, which is the direct opposite. Nervous and shy lean toward the same fearful sense as timid, while quiet only suggests low volume or reserve.
