Question
Choose the correct synonym of the word highlighted in
each sentence from the alternatives given below it. The allegation against the employer is absurd.Solution
Explanation: Absurd (highlighted word): "Absurd" is an adjective that means something extremely unreasonable, illogical, or contrary to common sense. In the context of the sentence, it suggests that the allegation against the employer lacks logic or is highly unreasonable. Options: (a) Unreasonable: This is the correct synonym for "absurd." Both words convey the idea of something not based on reason, logic, or common sense. (b) Reasonable: This is the opposite of "absurd." If the allegation were reasonable, it would make sense and be logical, which is not the case here. (c) Mysterious: This option doesn't convey the same meaning as "absurd." "Mysterious" refers to something that is difficult to understand or explain, but it doesn't necessarily imply unreasonableness. (d) True: This option is also the opposite of "absurd." If the allegation were true, it would be based on facts and reality, whereas "absurd" suggests the opposite. Β
