Choose the most appropriate option opposite in meaning of the underlined word.

The poor man is compelled to languish in his poverty-stricken situation?

Answer Details

The opposite of "languish" is "luxuriate in" which means to enjoy oneself in luxurious surroundings or conditions. This means that the poor man is not enjoying himself or his situation, so the opposite would be to luxuriate in or enjoy a better, more comfortable situation.
