What will come at the place of (?)
QUXTIC : IDEALISTIC :: PRAGMATIC : ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Realistic.

Quirky/Exotic: Idealistic—In contrast to a practical person, who only talks about ideals, they can often seem distant from the real world or 'quirky.' In the broader Hindi context, idealistic (one who lives in fantasy or lofty ideals) and practical (one who is down to earth) represent opposite natures.

Similarly, the direct antonym or complement of practical is realistic, where a practical person always accepts reality.
