Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the underlined word.

Do you know the old adage 'the show must go on’?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The Correct answer is Option 1 i.e. Contemporary.

A more appropriate antonym for "adage" would be a term that refers to a recent or modern saying, as "adage" typically implies something traditional or old-fashioned. A suitable option could be: "Contemporary".

This option would convey the opposite idea of something being modern or current rather than old or traditional.
