Out of the given alternatives select the alternative which best expresses the meaning of given word.
Resolve

Tranquility
Explanation: Tranquility means a state of peace, calmness, and quietness, so Serenity is the correct synonym. Turmoil means disturbance or disorder, which is opposite in meaning. Suspicion relates to doubt, and Incapacity means inability, so both are unsuitable here.
Out of the given alternatives select the alternative which best expresses the meaning of given word.
Morality
Explanation: Morality means principles concerning right and wrong behaviour, and Integrity closely expresses moral honesty and correctness. Wickedness is opposite in meaning. Withdrawal relates to leaving or moving back, while Agitation refers to restlessness or disturbance, so they do not match the given word.

Capability
Explanation: Capability means the ability or power to do something, and Competence expresses the same idea of skill or capacity. Weakness is opposite in meaning. Exclusion refers to keeping out, and Restlessness means lack of calmness, so these options do not convey the meaning of capability.
Out of the given alternatives select the word opposite in meaning to the given word.
Assurance

Out of the given alternatives select the word opposite in meaning to the given word.
Endurance
Explanation: Endurance means the ability to suffer something difficult for a long time without giving up, while Exhaustion shows complete tiredness or loss of strength. Stamina, Persistence, and Tolerance are connected with the meaning of endurance, so they are not suitable as antonyms.

Accession
Explanation: Accession means reaching a position of power or formally joining something, so Withdrawal is the correct opposite because it means moving away or leaving. Appointment, Admission, and Entry support the idea of joining or reaching a position, so they are not antonyms.
Out of the given alternatives select the word opposite in meaning to the given word.
Constitutive

She resolved for work harder for the examination.

Out of given alternatives, choose the word which can be substituted for the given words/ sentence.
The teacher gave assurance for that every student would get proper guidance.

Out of given alternatives, choose the word which can be substituted for the given words/ sentence.
Freedom of speech is a constitutive element of democracy.
Explanation: The sentence is already correct because a constitutive element of democracy properly means an essential part of democracy. The phrases for democracy, by democracy, and with democracy do not express the relationship as accurately as of democracy. Therefore, no correction is required.
A statement with one blank is given below. Choose the set of words from the given options which can be used to fill the given blank.
The new officer showed great ______ in handling difficult situations.
Explanation: Capability is the correct word because the sentence talks about the officer’s ability or power to handle difficult situations. Suspicion means doubt, turmoil means disturbance, and weakness is opposite to ability. Therefore, these words do not fit the positive context of the sentence.

Out of given alternatives select the option which best expresses the meaning of given idiom/ phrase.
Strong resolve
Explanation: Strong resolve means a firm decision and determination to do something or solve a problem. Complete confusion and lack of confidence are opposite to the idea of resolve. Formal withdrawal is related more to moving back or leaving, not to firm decision-making.
Out of given alternatives select the option which best expresses the meaning of given idiom/ phrase.
Give assurance
Explanation: Give assurance means to offer a confident promise or certainty about something. Create doubt is opposite to the meaning because assurance removes uncertainty. Show inability relates to incapacity, and cause disturbance is linked with lack of tranquility, so both are unsuitable.
Out of given alternatives select the option which best expresses the meaning of given idiom/ phrase.
Accession to the throne
Explanation: Accession to the throne means reaching a position of power, especially becoming a ruler. Burning a wound relates to cauterize, calm waiting relates to patience, and forming a secondary part does not fit because accession is about joining or gaining power.
