Question:

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the capitalised word in the given sentence.

Affluent people tend to look upon illiteracy with comfortable DETACHMENT.

Options:

Justice

Humour

Neutrality

Subjectivity

Correct Answer:

Subjectivity

Explanation:

The correct answer is Subjectivity.

  • Detachment means the state of being emotionally or intellectually uninvolved.
  • Subjectivity means the state of being influenced by personal feelings, opinions, or beliefs.

In the sentence, the affluent people are looking at illiteracy with a lack of emotion or personal involvement. This is the opposite of subjectivity, which is being influenced by personal feelings or beliefs.

The other answer choices are not opposites of detachment.

  • Justice is the fair and impartial administration of the law.
  • Humour is the ability to perceive, enjoy, or express the humorous.
  • Neutrality is the state of being impartial or unbiased.
