Question 1 Report

Instruction: Choose the word opposite in meaning to the underlined word.

Too many theories will not help us; we need to be ...........
Answer Details
The opposite of the underlined word "theories" is "practical." The sentence suggests that too much theoretical discussion will not benefit the situation, and instead practical solutions are needed. "Practical" means something that is based on practice or action rather than theory or speculation. It implies the implementation of an idea or solution in a practical and realistic way, rather than relying on abstract theories. Therefore, the word opposite in meaning to "theories" is "practical."
