Word: Devote
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
‘Devote’ means to give all or a large part of one's time or resources to a specific person, activity, or cause.
‘Dedicate’ has an almost identical meaning: to set apart or commit oneself to a particular goal or purpose.
Waste: This is nearly the opposite. To waste something is to use it carelessly or for no purpose.
Ignore: To ignore is to refuse to take notice of or acknowledge something, which is the opposite of being devoted to it.
Delay: To delay means to make something late or slow it down; it doesn't relate to the level of commitment or focus.
