Select the option that can be used as a one-word substitute for the given group of words.
A building containing interesting, rare, and old objects
 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

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

Correct One-Word Substitute: Museum

  • Meaning: A building where objects of historical, scientific, artistic, or cultural interest are kept and displayed to the public.

  • Example: We visited the museum to see the ancient artefacts.

Why the other options are incorrect:

  • Auditorium: A large room or hall used for public gatherings, especially for performances — not for displaying objects.

  • Stockroom: A room used to store supplies or inventory — usually not open to the public and not for historical items.

  • Mansion: A large, luxurious house — unrelated to the purpose of storing or displaying rare and old items.

Hence, the chosen option will be correct.
