Question

Choose the word/group of words which has nearly the SAME meaning as the word/ group of words given:
FOCUS

• A. Adjust
• B. Concentrate
• C. Meditate
• D. Circulate

Answer 1

The correct option is B Concentrate

Option B: 'Focus' means 'to concentrate on something'.

'Concentrate' means 'to focus one's attention on an object or activity'.

'Concentrate' means the same as 'focus'. Hence option B is correct.

Option A: 'Adjust' means 'to alter/move to the desired fit or result'.

Option C: 'Meditate' means 'to focus one's mind in silence or for religious or spiritual purposes. The meaning slightly differs from 'focus' itself'. 'Focus' does not have a spiritual or religious implication.

Option D: 'Circulate' means 'to move continuously through a closed system or area'.

These words do not mean the same as 'focus', and 'concentrate' is the closest in meaning.

Hence options A, C and D are wrong.
