Select the most appropriate SYNONYM for the given word.

REPOSE

Options:

Keep

Replace

Rest

Place

Correct Answer:

Rest

Explanation:

The most appropriate synonym for the word repose is rest.

  • Repose means to rest or lie in a state of quiet or inactivity.
  • Rest means to lie down or sit inactive, especially for relaxation or sleep.

The other words do not have the same meaning as repose and are therefore not synonyms.

  • Keep means to retain possession of something.
  • Replace means to put something in the place of something else.
  • Place means to put something in a particular position or location.
