The soldier showed an **exemplary** courage
EnglishSynonyms
- Aflawed
- Bfaulty
- Cideal
- Dboisterous
Explanation
'Exemplary' means serving as a model worthy of imitation, so 'ideal' (perfect as a model) is nearest in meaning. 'Flawed' and 'faulty' are opposites, meaning defective, while 'boisterous' means noisy and energetic, which has nothing to do with courage as a model. Hence (c) is correct.
