Out of the given alternatives select the alternative which best expresses the meaning of given word.
Heroic
Explanation: Heroic means showing great courage and bravery, so valiant is the best synonym. Timid means fearful and is opposite in sense, absurd means unreasonable, and lifeless zone is related to the antonym of biosphere, not heroic.
Out of the given alternatives select the alternative which best expresses the meaning of given word.
Murmur
Explanation: Murmur means to speak very softly or in a low voice, so whisper is the correct synonym. Roar is the opposite because it means a loud sound, massive means very large, and surrender means to give up or give away, so they do not express the meaning of murmur.
Out of the given alternatives select the alternative which best expresses the meaning of given word.
Review
Explanation: Review means to examine, check, or assess something again, so assess is the most suitable synonym. Overlook means to ignore, shuffle is related to an unsteady way of walking, and conceal means to hide, so these options do not match the meaning of review.
Out of the given alternatives select the alternative which best expresses the meaning of given word.
Logical
Explanation: Logical means based on clear reason and sensible thinking, so rational is the best synonym. Irrational is opposite in meaning, distort means to misrepresent something, and creep means to move slowly, so they are not suitable synonyms of logical.
Out of the given alternatives select the word opposite in meaning to the given word.
Purchase
Explanation: Purchase means to buy something by paying money, so sell is the correct opposite. Acquire, obtain, and procure are synonyms of purchase because all of them express the idea of getting or buying something.
Out of the given alternatives select the word opposite in meaning to the given word.
Miniature
Explanation: Miniature means very small in size or a small copy of something, so gigantic is the correct antonym because it means very large. Tiny, diminutive, and little are synonyms of miniature and therefore cannot express the opposite meaning.
Out of the given alternatives select the word opposite in meaning to the given word.
Represent
Explanation: Represent means to stand for, symbolize, or act on behalf of someone or something, so misrepresent is the best antonym because it means to present something wrongly. Symbolize, portray, and stand for are close synonyms of represent.
