Each item in this section consists of a sentence with an underlined word followed by four words. Select the option that is opposite in meaning to the underlined word and mark your response on the Answer Sheet accordingly.
She accepted the prospect of her medical treatment with **equanimity**.
- Atranquillity
- Bagitation
- Ccomposure
- Dplacidity
Explanation
Equanimity means mental calmness and composure, especially in difficult situations — the ability to accept things without agitation. ‘Tranquillity’, ‘composure’ and ‘placidity’ are all synonyms of equanimity, describing a calm, undisturbed state of mind. ‘Agitation’, by contrast, means a state of anxiety, nervous excitement or mental disturbance — the direct opposite of calm acceptance. Since the question asks for the opposite in meaning, agitation is the only antonym among the choices.
