Identify the most appropriate ANTONYM of the underlined word in the given sentence.
Lady Stranleigh continued to smile at him brilliantly.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Dimly.
The word "brilliantly" means "brightly" or "with great luster or intensity." Its opposite would be "dimly," which means "with little brightness or intensity."
The other options don’t represent an antonym:
"Brightly" is synonymous, not opposite.
"Cunningly" refers to cleverness or deceit, unrelated to brightness.
"Strangely" refers to oddness, not brightness.
