E) Lucrative

Answer 1

Hint: Synonyms are words that have similar meaning. Synonyms are used when you do not want to repeat the same word again and again.

Complete answer:

We have to find the meaning of spacious and the meaning of words that are given in the options. And both the words should have the same meaning or the exact sense.
The meaning of spacious is having ample space i.e. spacious is basically used for the room or building. And we have to find the correct answer from the options given whose meaning is same as of spacious.
Option A) Quiet - is an incorrect answer because the meaning of quiet is ‘ making little or no sound’ and this is not a synonym of spacious. Thus, this is an incorrect answer because the meaning of the words ‘quiet’ and ‘spacious’ does not match.
Option B) Colourful - is an incorrect answer because the meaning of colourful is ‘lots of colour’ and this is not a synonym of spacious. Thus, this is an incorrect answer because the meaning of the words ‘colourful’ and ‘spacious’ does not match.
Option C) Roomy – is the correct answer because the meaning of roomy is ‘having plenty of rooms, spacious’ and this is the synonym of spacious. Because the meaning of both the words are the same and can be used in place of each other. Thus, this is the correct answer.
Option D) Comfortable - is an incorrect answer because the meaning of comfortable is ‘being easy without any difficulty’ and this is not a synonym of spacious. Thus, this is an incorrect answer because the meaning of the words ‘comfortable’ and ‘spacious’ does not match.
Option E) Lucrative - is an incorrect answer because the meaning of lucrative is ‘producing good deal and profit’ and this is not a synonym of spacious. Thus, this is an incorrect answer because the meaning of the words ‘lucrative’ and ‘spacious’ does not match.
Mr Carter‘s new roomy office overlooking the city gives him ample search to do things.
