Question

Choose the synonym of the word given below:
Goods
a) Quality
b) Transport
c) Merchandise
d) Upright

Answer 1

Hint: Synonyms are words or phrases that mean exactly or nearly the same as another word or phrase. For example- ‘sad’ and ‘depressed’.
 Two words that can be interchanged in a context are said to be synonymous relative to that context.

Complete answer:
In the given question, the word ‘goods’ refers to ‘(business, economics, plurale tantum) That which is produced, then traded, bought or sold, then finally consumed.’
Let us analyze the options given to us in this question-
Option (a.), 'quality', refers to ‘an essential and distinguishing attribute of something or someone’.
Therefore, option (a.) is incorrect as its meaning is not synonymous with that of the given word ‘goods’.
Option (b.), ‘transport', refers to ‘something that serves as a means of transportation’.
Therefore, option (b.) is incorrect as its meaning is not synonymous with that of the given word ‘goods’.
Option (c.), ‘merchandise', refers to ‘commodities offered for sale’.
Therefore, option (c.) is correct as its meaning is synonymous with that of the given word ‘goods’.
Option (d.), ‘upright', refers to ‘of moral excellence’.
Therefore, option (d.) is incorrect as its meaning is not synonymous with that of the given word ‘goods’.

Note:
If you don’t know the definition of the given word and have only used it in some given context previously, then use the given word in a sentence. Substitute the given word with each word in the options and choose the word which does not conflict with the context provided by the given word.
