Rukhsana was left alone in the house again, but fear was now her constant companion.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. changing.
The underlined word is “constant”, which means unchanging, continuous, or happening all the time.
We are asked to choose the antonym — a word with the opposite meaning.
Let's look at the options:
friendly
Not related in meaning to 'constant.' It describes behavior or attitude, not frequency or consistency.
boring
Describes something uninteresting. Not the opposite of constant.
changing
- Means not fixed, varying, or not staying the same — the opposite of constant.
- Correct antonym.
steady
Very similar in meaning to constant — actually a synonym, not an antonym.
