Question

: Choose the option that means the opposite of the given word
Carte blanche
a) Restriction
b) investment
c) order
d) importance

Answer 1

Hint: Hint: We have to find the opposite of the meaning of the given word. The word Carte Blanche means to have complete freedom to do what you want. So we have to find the word which means that you do not have complete freedom to do whatever you want.

Complete answer:
Option a is the correct answer because restriction means there is a barrier to your freedom to do anything that you want. For example, rules in school prevent children from doing whatever they want.
Option b is wrong because the word investment has nothing to do with the word carte blanche. Investment means to invest in something, such as investing money in the bank.
Efficiency is wrong because order means to be proper, for example, law and order. Or it can be the order that we place in restaurants. They deployed the police to maintain law and order in the area. She placed the order too late and thus, she had to go to sleep hungry.
Option d is wrong because carte blanche refers to the word freedom and importance is not the opposite of the word freedom. The word importance means the value of something is very high. This document is important so don’t lose it.

Note:
Having a good vocabulary helps in answering such questions where we have to find the opposite of given words. If we do not know the meaning of the given word that it is not possible to find its opposite.
