SSC GD 2024 PYQ — Question 4

SSC GD Const (English) - 26 Feb 2024 - Shift 1 • English • Q4

Select the most appropriate antonym of the given word.
Chose
Maleficent

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

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

"Maleficent" means harmful or evil, while "delightful" refers to something that brings pleasure and joy, making it the most appropriate antonym.

The other options—"obedient," "thorough," and "bad"—don't directly oppose "maleficent."

"Obedient" relates to following orders, "thorough" means complete or careful, and "bad" is negative but doesn't specifically capture the intentional harm implied by "maleficent."
