    NECESSITY

    Answer & explanation

    Answer: C) Luxury

    Meaning: necessity = something you cannot do without *(आवश्यकता, ज़रूरत)*.
    Its opposite is luxury = something pleasant or costly but not needed *(विलासिता, ऐश्वर्य की वस्तु)*.
    *Food is a necessity; a sports car is a luxury.*

    Why the others are wrong.
    #B Requirement = something that is needed *(अपेक्षा, ज़रूरत)* — a synonym, not an antonym.
    #B Essential = absolutely necessary *(अनिवार्य, अत्यावश्यक)* — again a synonym.
    #B Necessary = needed *(आवश्यक)* — the adjective from the same root; same sense, and an adjective, not a noun.

    Answer: Luxury

    *Necessity is what you cannot live without; luxury is what you can.*
