Q1Bogus means ________.

A False
B Big
C True
D Confident
Explanation

The word "bogus" means false, fake, or not genuine, so "False" gives the closest meaning. "Big" refers to size and has no connection with authenticity. "True" is the opposite of bogus because a true thing is genuine or correct. "Confident" describes a person's self-assurance; it does not mean fake or counterfeit. In vocabulary questions, choose the word that matches the sense of the target word, not a word that merely sounds common or familiar.

Q2The most appropriate meaning of the word 'solace' is:

A Effort
B Realm
C Contentment
D Comfort in distress
Explanation

'Solace' means comfort, consolation, or relief given to someone who is sad, tired, anxious, or in distress. Effort refers to exertion or work, so it does not match the emotional meaning of the word. Realm means a kingdom, field, or sphere, which is entirely different. Contentment means satisfaction or peaceful acceptance; it is related to happiness but does not specifically include relief during suffering. Comfort in distress captures both parts of the meaning: a troubled condition and the consolation that eases it.
