Question 1 Report
Choose the option opposite in meaning to the word or phrase underlined.
She looks very pale.
Answer Details
The word **pale** generally refers to having a lighter complexion, which can suggest **illness** or **lack of color**. To find the opposite meaning, we want a word that suggests **rich color** or **healthiness** of the complexion.
**Ruddy** means having a **healthy reddish color**, typically related to a healthy, vibrant complexion. Therefore, **ruddy** is the opposite of **pale**, as it signifies health and colorfulness in contrast to the paleness that suggests lack of color or unhealthiness.
On the other hand, **strange**, **sick**, and **weak** do not convey the opposite of a pale complexion. **Strange** means unusual, **sick** means unhealthy, and **weak** indicates lacking strength. None of these implies a healthy or rich color like **ruddy** does.
