Question

    Select the most appropriate antonym of the word given in brackets to fill in the blank:

    Despite the efforts to make the designs more unique, the new products are still considered ___________ (distinct) from the old ones.

    A Unique Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Different Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Similar Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Special Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The term "distinct" means something that is clearly different or unique. The antonym of "distinct" would be something that indicates a lack of clear difference or uniqueness. "Similar" describes things that are alike or not different, which is the opposite of being distinct or unique. Unique and Special are synonyms of "distinct" and thus do not serve as antonyms. Different is close but does not precisely capture the opposite of "distinct" in the context of the question.
