Question

Choose the word closest in meaning to the underlined word.

The complete set of books will cost sixty dollars.

• A. entire
• B. finish
• C. common
• D. interesting

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

entire

The underlined word means 'having every necessary part'. Thus, the answer must have the same meaning.

Option A is correct. 'Entire' means 'having the full quantity'. We can see that it has the same meaning as the required one and thus, it is correct.

Options B, C and D are incorrect. They do not have the required meaning.

Option B means 'come or bring to an end'.

Option C means 'ordinary or usual'.

Option D means 'arousing or holding the attention'.
