An antonym for "dispassionate" is __________.

  1. enraged
  2. foolish
  3. dismissive
  4. angry
  5. avid

Answer(s): E

Explanation:

Someone who is "dispassionate" is relatively unemotional, not being swayed very easily by passions. (Hence the name, which means lacking passions). This is quite opposite to an avid person. The word “avid” is derived from a Latin root meaning to crave. It is likewise related to "avarice," meaning greatly greedy. In English, “avid” means enthusiastic or passionate. The words “angry” and “enraged” are too specific. “Avid” is a better, more direct, antonym.



An antonym for "flagrant" is __________.

  1. calm
  2. pacifist
  3. overwrought
  4. violent
  5. concealed

Answer(s): E

Explanation:

When something is done "flagrantly," it is done in a manner that is very open and conspicuous, often with the sense that the person doing it is aware that the action is morally or legally unacceptable. You have likely heard the expression, “Flagrant violation of the law.” An example of this would be, “John committed a flagrant violation of the traffic law with glee. After commenting on the 45 mile-per-hour speed limit, he pressed down the accelerator and began driving at 90 miles per hour, commenting that he would never obey such a stupid law.” Among the options provided, only “concealed” gives us some sense of contrast with “flagrant” insofar as something concealed is not admitted “in the open,” as is the case with something flagrant.



An antonym for "hardy" is __________.

  1. scarcely
  2. completely
  3. robust
  4. fragile
  5. healthy

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The word “hardy” is sometimes used in the expression “hale and hardy,” meaning healthy and strong. The word originally derived from roots meaning to be or become bold. The word “robust” is often a synonym for hardy, meaning, vigorous, forceful, healthy, or forceful. In contrast to such strength, something "fragile" is easily broken, harmed, or debilitated. This word is the best antonym among the options provided.



An antonym for "pertinent" is __________.

  1. irresponsible
  2. researched
  3. immaterial
  4. intelligent
  5. pleasing

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

When something is "pertinent," it is relevant or applicable to a given situation. For instance, you could say, “The facts that Harold cited were not pertinent to the topic of his report and thus were distracting additions that added nothing to the overall discussion.” Although “immaterial” can mean not material in the sense of being spiritual or perhaps ghostly, the word also can mean irrelevant or not important (at least in a given set of circumstances). You could say, “Your objection is immaterial, for you are not even focusing on the problem that I am considering.” This is the only antonym among the options provided.



An antonym for "ubiquitous" is __________.

  1. criminal
  2. sinful
  3. rare
  4. acceptable
  5. legal

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The word “ubiquitous” comes from the Latin word "ubi,” meaning where.
When something is “ubiquitous,” it exists everywhere, in all places. In contrast to this, something “rare” does not occur very often, so this is the best option for an antonym. Do not be fooled into thinking that “ubiquitous” is “iniquitous,” which means morally wrong. This mistake could lead you to choose either “acceptable” or “legal.”



An antonym for "redundant" is __________.

  1. essential
  2. organized
  3. counted
  4. studied
  5. repetition

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Something "redundant" is repetitive and perhaps unnecessary. This is not always the case, for a building could be provided with redundant power supplies, meaning that it has extra sources of power that are not always used. Perhaps there is a danger that one set of power lines will be knocked down. An extra set is installed just in case of such an accident. These lines are “redundant” in the sense of being extra and superfluous, but they certainly are not useless; however, in general use, something that is redundant – so long as it is redundant – is extra and could be removed without causing any immediate changes to the situation. In contrast to this, something essential cannot be so easily changed.



“Childish” is to “puerile” as “facetious” is to “__________”.

  1. flippant
  2. trite
  3. humorous
  4. disrespectful
  5. amusing

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The word “puerile” is derived from the Latin for “boy.” The English word means “childish,” so this analogy is one of synonymy.
When someone acts in a facetious manner, that person treats a serious manner in a way that is inappropriately flippant or light-hearted. Although facetious talk might be humorous, amusing, or even disrespectful, the best description is “flippant,” which is the correct answer for this analogy.



“Reliable” is to “dependable”, “remorseful” is to “__________”.

  1. atonement
  2. begging
  3. anger
  4. contrite
  5. penance

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The first half of this analogy is comprised of two very common words. Merely note that they are basically synonyms, so it will be necessary to find a synonym for “remorseful” among the options provided. To feel remorse is to feel sorry for a wrong that one commits. Among the options provided, only “contrite” expresses this same kind of emotional reaction. “Contrition” is the state of such remorse.
While words like “penance” and “atonement” might seem proper, these do not describe the actual state of sorrow felt for the wrong actions.
