Question

Find the synonym of the underlined word:
Kitaro is often described by critics being an exemplary man of creative music.
a. Atypical
b. Extra
c. Usual
d. Worst
e. Model

Answer 1

Hint: Synonym is a word that means the same as the given word. The given word is ‘Exemplary’, which is perfect or ideal. One must look for words synonymous to the given word, for the correct answer.

Complete answer:
Option a, ‘atypical’ means unusual and it is almost irrelevant to the given word, hence option ‘a’ is an incorrect option. Option b, ‘extra’, means excess or leftover, which is, again, irrelevant to the given word, hence option ‘b’ is an incorrect option. Option c, ‘usual’, means normal, which has no relation to the given word and its context, hence option c is an incorrect option. Option d, ‘worst’, means of the poorest standards, which is irrelevant to the given word, hence is an incorrect choice. Option e, ‘model’, means perfect, which means the same as the given word and hence is the correct choice. Option ‘e’ is the correct choice.

Note: Here, one must clearly know the meanings of the words given in the options as well as the sentence.
