Question:

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

She remained resolute in her belief.

Options:

inflexible

sluggish

barbaric

wavering

Correct Answer:

wavering

Explanation:

The word resolute means "firmly resolved or determined." Its antonym is wavering, which means "lacking firmness or resolution."

The other words do not have the same meaning as resolute, so they are not its antonyms.

  • Inflexible means "not able or willing to change."
  • Sluggish means "slow and lazy."
  • Barbaric means "savage or cruel."
