GOGGLE
Explanation: Goggle means to look with wide-open eyes, usually because of surprise or amazement. Gape is therefore the closest synonym because it also suggests staring with the eyes or mouth wide open in astonishment. Ignore, disregard and avoid indicate deliberately paying no attention and are opposite in meaning.
Out of the given alternatives select the word opposite in meaning to the given word.
ROMP
Explanation: Romp means to play or move about in a lively, energetic and carefree manner. Trudge is the best opposite because it means moving laboriously or heavily rather than energetically and playfully. Frolic, gambol and cavort are all associated with lively and playful movement and therefore are close in meaning to romp.

CRABBED
Explanation: Crabbed describes someone who is irritable or bad-tempered. Amiable is the correct antonym because it describes a pleasant and good-natured disposition. Peevish, cantankerous and grumpy all express irritability or bad temper and are therefore similar rather than opposite in meaning to crabbed.
