Assessment: JAMB UTME - Use of English - 2001 Subject: English Language

Question 1 Report

Choose the option opposite in meaning to the underlined word(s).The town was all agog at his unexpected return?
Answer Details
The opposite in meaning to the underlined word "agog" is "unexcited." "Agog" means to be very excited or eager about something. Therefore, "unexcited" is the opposite because it means not being excited or having no excitement. Option A, "on fire," is not the opposite in meaning but a synonym of "agog" and therefore incorrect. Option D, "surprised," is also not the opposite in meaning and does not convey the sense of being excited.
