Hint:A synonym is a word that has the same or virtually the same meaning as another word or sentence. Terms that have the opposite (or almost opposite) meaning are antonyms. For instance: old and new. Synonymous terms are referred to as being synonymous, and synonymy is considered the condition of being a synonym.
Word ‘Focus’ technically means: the point at which light, heat or sound waves meet or travel away from, or seem to move apart in particular: the point at which an image is created by a mirror, a lens, etc.

Complete answer:
Option A:- 'Adapt' means to change/move to the desired fit or effect.
Option B:- "Focus" means "to focus on something."
'Concentrate' means 'concentrating one's concentration on an object or action.'
'Focus' does the same as 'focus'. Option B is right.
Option C:- 'Meditation' involves 'focusing one's mind in solitude or for spiritual or religious reasons. The definition varies somewhat from 'emphasis' itself '. 'Focus' has no theological or spiritual ramifications.
Option D:- 'Circulate' implies 'continuously moving through a closed structure or area.'

Hence the correct answer is option B.

Note:As for attraction, attention, or movement, emphasis as a noun is a focal point:- example, the need to avert a nuclear war has been the focus of all diplomatic efforts.
Focus as a verb is 'focused':- to cause to be concentrated focused their attention on the most urgent problems.
