Question

Select the opposite of the given word
Dilapidated
a) Costly
b) Well furnished
c) Broken down
d) Renovated

Answer 1

Hint: The word given to us in the question, which is, dilapidated, is an adjective which means ‘something in a state of disrepair or ruin as a result of age or neglect.’

Complete answer:
As we know what the word given to us means, let us see how we can use it in a sentence: ’On the east of the town at the foot of a hill stands a dilapidated fort.’ Now let us understand and analyze all the flour options given to us, one by one.
Option ‘a’, costly, means something which has a high price, mostly unaffordable from someone's perspective.
Well furnished, option b, is a phrase that can be understood as someplace that is properly maintained and well equipped with furniture and furnishings.
Option c, broken down, this term, as the name suggests, means something which can no longer be used or is no longer in a working condition, due to various reasons.
Lastly, option d, renovated can be understood as ‘to restore (something old, especially a building) to a good state of repair.’
Reading the above alternatives and their explanations, we can very clearly understand that option d, renovated is the correct answer to our question.

Note:
Elimination is a good method to attempt such questions. Moreover, we must not get confused between synonyms and antonyms. An example of the sentence usage is: ‘On the east of the town at the foot of a hill stands a dilapidated fort.’
