SSC CGL 2024 PYQ — Question 15

SSC CGL - 13 Sep 2024 - Shift 1 • English • Q15

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word. Barbarity

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Compassion.

Barbarity refers to extreme cruelty or savagery, while compassion refers to kindness, empathy, and a concern for the well-being of others, making it the opposite of barbarity.

The other options—callous (emotionally insensitive), compromise (a mutual agreement), and rivalry (competition)—do not directly oppose barbarity in the way compassion does.
