Question:

Choose the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Humility

Options:

Arrogance

Demureness

Modesty

Attractive

Correct Answer:

Arrogance

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word humility is arrogance.

  • Humility means "the quality of being humble; modest or unpretentious."
  • Arrogance means "having or showing an exaggerated sense of one's own importance or abilities."

The other words do not have the same meaning as "humility" and are therefore not antonyms.

  • Demureness means "modest or reserved in manner or behavior."
  • Modesty means "the quality of being modest; humble or unpretentious."
  • Attractive means "having qualities that appeal to the senses or mind."
