Answer 1

Hint: In this question we need to look for the word which has similar or closest meaning to the given word ‘Disinter’. Or two words with a nearly common meaning or same meaning words.

Complete answer:
The word Disinter means: to dig up, to take out the body which has been buried unearth, to remove something which has been hidden for long underneath, to take out of the grave or tomb etc.

Now let’s examine and understand the given option above.
> Bury: The word bury means: to put a body into the grave or ground. It is totally opposite of the given word so it is neither related nor appropriate answer for the given question.

> Befool: The word befool means: to make a fool, play a trick, etc. This option is inappropriate for the given question.
Example: This is the first time you have fooled me.

> Disguise: The word disguise means: to change your attire, look, appearance, voice in order to pretend to be someone else so that no one can recognize you or hide your identification. So, it is neither related nor appropriate to answer the given question.
Example: She disguised herself by wearing a mask on her face but I recognized her.

> Unearth: Here the word unearth has the same meaning: to dig up, to remove something which has been hidden for long underneath, to take out of the grave or tomb etc. As it is related, nearest and appropriate answer for the given question, so the right answer will be option [C] Unearth.
