SSC CGL - 19 July 2023 - Shift 2 • English • Q22

Select the most appropriate synonym of the given word.

Incredible

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

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

The most appropriate synonym for "incredible" from the given options is "unbelievable."

The terms "unbelievable" and "incredible" express a sense of surprise or disbelief and describe things that are hard to comprehend or astounding.

"Reasonable" and "realistic" suggest something is feasible or reasonable, which is the opposite of the idea of something being amazing.

The term "unachievable" does not necessarily mean "incredible." Instead, it describes anything that cannot be achieved or accomplished.

Consequently, "unbelievable" best expresses the meaning that "incredible" was intended to convey in this particular situation.
