Official Scope and Question Style
This topic belongs to the vocabulary-recognition part of CET Senior Secondary General English. Under the current senior-secondary syllabus, the directly relevant bullets are Glossary of official and technical terms with their Hindi versions, Synonyms, Antonyms, One word substitution, and Comprehension of a given passage. Sentence-correction practice is not listed as a separate General English bullet for this level, so grammar-error repair should not displace vocabulary preparation here.
The paper is objective, so the candidate normally has to choose the best option, not write a long explanation. A synonym item may give a word such as brief, accurate, timid or ancient. An antonym item may ask the opposite of accept, expand, scarce or permanent. A one-word substitution item may define a person, place, group, quality or action. A glossary item may ask the accepted Hindi equivalent of an official word such as notification or affidavit. A passage item may ask the meaning of a word as used in the passage.
At 10+2 level, keep the range broad but controlled. Learn common school and official-use words, not rare dictionary curiosities. Core exam habit: identify the question type first, then test the exact sense before choosing the best option.
