Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the word given in the brackets to fill in the blank.

We live on the ________ (centre) of the city.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

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

  • "Centre" refers to the central or core area of a place, typically a city or town.
  • "Outskirts" represent the outer edges or boundaries of a city or town, away from the central or main part.

In the sentence, the antonym "outskirts" contrasts with the idea of the central location, indicating that the residence is situated on the outskirts or periphery of the city.
