    Answer & explanation

    Answer: C) Confusing

    From Latin *lux, lucis* = light — a lucid explanation "sheds light".

    Why the others are wrong.
    #B Clear = easy to understand *(स्पष्ट)* — a synonym.
    #B Transparent = easy to see through or understand *(पारदर्शी, साफ़)* — a synonym.
    #B Obvious = easily seen or understood *(ज़ाहिर, प्रत्यक्ष)* — close to lucid in sense.

  6. SSC CGL 2023 T-1 Antonyms

    Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the underlined word.
    Lucy presented a lucid account of her achievements before the committee.

    Answer & explanation

    Answer: A) ambiguous

    Answer: ambiguous
    Solution:
    • The word lucid means clearly expressed and easy to understand (स्पष्ट, साफ़)।
    • We need the antonym, i.e., a word that means the opposite — something unclear or confusing.
    • Ambiguous means unclear, open to more than one meaning (अस्पष्ट, भ्रमित करने वाला), which is the correct opposite of lucid.
    • Other options:
    • Orderly – well-organised (व्यवस्थित) – not opposite of lucid
    • Intelligible – understandable (बोधगम्य) – similar to lucid
    • Transparent – clear or see-through (पारदर्शी, स्पष्ट) – also similar
    • Therefore, the correct antonym of lucid is ambiguous.
