Question:

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

HEINOUS

Options:

Agreeable

Biased

Unwilling

Unhealthy

Correct Answer:

Agreeable

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 1. Agreeable.

"Heinous" typically describes something that is shockingly evil or wicked, often involving atrocious or abhorrent behavior.

The antonym we're looking for should describe something that is acceptable, pleasant, or morally upright.

"Agreeable" fits this description perfectly. It means pleasant or acceptable, contrasting with "heinous," which implies extreme wickedness or evil.

Therefore, "agreeable" is the appropriate antonym for "heinous" because it represents the opposite characteristic—pleasant or acceptable instead of shockingly evil or wicked.
