SSC CHSL 2024 PYQ — Question 6

SSC CHSL - 11 July 2024 - Shift 1 • English • Q6

Identify the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

He worked alone as he did not want anyone to hamper his project.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Help.

"Hamper" means to obstruct, hinder, or slow down progress, while "Help" means to assist or make something easier, making it the most appropriate opposite.

The other options—"Care" (which relates to concern), "Impede" (which is a synonym), and "Finish" (which relates to completion rather than obstruction)—do not serve as direct antonyms.
