Assessment: WAEC SSCE - English Language - 2021 (Objective) Subject: English Language

Question 1 Report

From the list of words lettered A to D, choose the one that is most nearly opposite in meaning to the underlined word and that will, at the same time, correctly fill the gap in the sentence.

That engineer was said to have used inferior than _____ materials in the construction of the collapsed building.

Answer Details
The underlined word "inferior" means lower in quality or not as good as something else. Therefore, the word that is most nearly opposite in meaning to "inferior" is "excellent," which means of the highest quality or extremely good. Therefore, the sentence would read: "That engineer was said to have used materials that were less excellent than recommended materials in the construction of the collapsed building."
