TESTIMONY

Options:

Approval

Difficulty

Witness

Disproof

Correct Answer:

Disproof

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 4. Disproof.

"Testimony" typically refers to evidence or a statement given under oath in a court of law, or it can refer to a formal written or spoken statement, especially one given in a court of law.

The antonym we're looking for should describe something that contradicts or disproves a statement or evidence.

"Disproof" fits this description perfectly. It refers to evidence or an argument that shows something to be false or incorrect, contrasting with "testimony," which implies evidence or statements supporting a claim or assertion.

Therefore, "disproof" is the appropriate antonym for "testimony" because it represents the opposite characteristic—evidence or arguments contradicting or disproving a statement instead of supporting it.
