SSC CHSL - 11 July 2024 - Shift 1 • English • Q9

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Abandon

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Adopt.

"Adopt" is the most appropriate antonym for "Abandon" because "abandon" means to leave, give up, or desert something, while "adopt" means to accept, take in, or take responsibility for something. 

The other options do not fit: "Randomize" means to make unpredictable, "Destroy" means to ruin rather than leave behind, and "Surrender" means to give up control, which is different from abandonment.
