Identify the most appropriate ANTONYM of the word in brackets.
Her candid remarks were a (refreshing) change from the usual diplomatic responses.Answer & explanation
Answer: D) Stale
Answer: d) Stale
Explanation:
The word "refreshing" means something new, different, or pleasantly surprising (ताज़ा या नया महसूस होने वाला).
Its opposite should mean dull, old, or lacking freshness.
• Stale = not fresh; dull or uninteresting (बासी, नीरस) → Correct antonym
• Bracing = energising or refreshing (उत्तेजक) → synonym, not antonym
• Revitalising = giving new life or energy (फिर से जीवंत करने वाला) → synonym
• Invigorating = making one feel strong or full of energy (ताज़गी देने वाला) → synonym
Only "stale" conveys the opposite of "refreshing".
