    Select the word or group of words that is most similar in meaning to the word in capital letters. 

    HANDY

    'Handy' means something very convenient to use. E.g. First-time visitors to France will find this guide particularly handy. 'Intact' means complete and in the original state. 'Accessible' means able to be reached or easily got. 'Supportive' means showing agreement and giving encouragement. 'Handful' means an amount of something that can be held in one hand. 
    Thus, option B is the most similar in meaning to the given word. 
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Antonyms:    
    Please
    Solution
    • The answer is 'displease' because the prefix 'dis' is a negation or opposite to the word 'please'. The prefix 'un' is used for the related verbs, for example, unpleasant. The prefix 'mis' in option C means 'wrong' and 'non' in D usually means the lack of something, either of which cannot be used for the antonym of 'please'.

    Option A: “their” is used to indicate possession or ownership, for example, “They went in their car.”. This is meaningless in the given case. Hence, this option is incorrect.

    Option C: “there” represents a position, for example, “He was standing there.”. This is meaningless in the given case. Hence, this option is incorrect.

    'Uncommon' means 'not happening very often'.
    Hence, 'uncommon' means the same as 'rare'. So option B is correct.
    Option A: 'Common' means 'occurring or done often'. It means the opposite of the word 'rare'.
    Option C: 'Important' means 'of great significance or value'.
    Option D: 'Different' means 'not the same as another'. It means 'not the same', whereas 'rare' means 'not like others'. There's a slight difference in meaning.

    The synonym of the word underlined at [2] is ___________.
    Solution
    A synonym is a word/phrase that means the same as another word/phrase.
    Option B: The word 'captured' means 'take into one's possession or control by force'.
    'Arrested' means 'take someone (forcibly) by legal authority and take them into custody'.
    As you can see, 'arrested' means the same as 'captured'.
    Both mean 'to take someone into possession/custody by force'.
    Hence, 'arrested' is the synonym of 'captured'. Hence, option B is correct.

    Option A: 'Released' means the opposite of 'captured'. It means 'to set someone/something free'.
    Option C: 'Arrived' means 'to reach a place at the end of a journey'.
    Option D: 'Returned' means 'to go back to a place or person'.
    These words do not mean the same as 'captured'.
    Hence, options A, C and D are wrong.
