Hint: Synonyms are the words that have the same or similar meaning and to avoid repetition synonyms are used. For example: the synonym of beautiful is pretty and adorable.

Complete answer:
The meaning of really stunning is ‘extremely impressive or attractive or remarkable or incredible or impressive’. And we must find the correct answer from the options given whose meaning is the same as really stunning.
Option A) Krone of a - is an incorrect answer because the meaning of krone is ‘the basic monetary unit of Denmark’ and this is not the synonym of ‘really stunning’ because their meanings are not the same. Thus, this is an incorrect answer.
Option B) Kunkle - is an incorrect answer because the meaning of Kunkle is ‘spindle’ and this is not the synonym of ‘really stunning’ because their meanings are not the same. Thus, this is an incorrect answer.
Option C) Knockout - is the correct answer because the meaning of knockout is ‘an act of knocking someone out’ and this is the synonym of the word ‘really stunning’ and they can be used in place of each other because they have similar meaning. Thus, this is the correct answer.
Option D) Finishing blow - is an incorrect answer because the meaning of finishing blow is ‘final or fatal strike or regardless of source’ and this is not the synonym of ‘really stunning’ because their meanings are not the same. Thus, this is an incorrect answer.

Hence, the correct answer is Option ‘ C’.

Note:Synonyms are the words that have the same or similar meaning i.e. the synonym of ‘really stunning’ is knockout. So, the most appropriate answer is Option C and antonym are the words that are opposite in meaning and the antonym of ‘really stunning’ is ordinary or unattractive. Thus, Option C is the correct answer and other options are wrong.
