Select the most appropriate synonym of the underlined word in the following sentence.

He and his family members live in prosperity.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. Richness.

  • Poverty means not having enough money or resources to live comfortably. 
  • Richness means having an abundance of money or resources. 

  • A loft is a specific type of room or space in a building, often under the roof. It doesn't relate to living comfortably or having money.

  • Hardship means facing difficulties or challenges. 

  • In the sentence, the word "prosperity" suggests that the person and their family are living well and comfortably.

The closest synonym to "prosperity" from the options is "richness," as it also means having a lot of resources and living comfortably.
