spry in SSC previous-year questions
- SSC CPO 2022 T-1 Antonyms
Identify the correct antonym for the following word.
With her spry and athletic build, she won the race easily.Answer & explanation
Answer: A) Lethargic
Answer: 1 (Lethargic)
Solution (Correct Option - 1: Lethargic):
The word “spry” means active, energetic, and lively, especially used for older people who move with youthful energy.
Its antonym is “lethargic”, which means sluggish, inactive, lacking energy.
In the sentence, “With her spry and athletic build, she won the race easily,” the word highlights her agility and energy. The opposite of that would be someone slow or without energy – hence, lethargic.
Why other options are incorrect:
Agile – synonym of “spry,” not its antonym.
Workaholic – a person who compulsively works a lot; unrelated to physical agility.
Sleuth – a detective or investigator; unrelated in meaning.
