Approached : Departed :: Admit : ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → Repudiate
Approached and Departed are opposites (coming towards and going away), so the word needed is the opposite of ‘admit’. To admit is to accept or confess that something is true; to repudiate is to reject or deny it.
Why the other options are incorrect
Option (2) Fail — Incorrect. It is the opposite of succeed or pass, not of admit.
Option (3) Accept — Incorrect. It is close in meaning to admit, not its opposite.
Option (4) Retreat — Incorrect. It means to move back or withdraw, the opposite of advance.
