Question

Choose the word which best expresses the meaning of the given word/phrase:

VORACIOUS

• A. Wild
• B. Hungry
• C. Angry

Answer 1

The correct option is B Hungry

The given word 'voracious' means 'craving or consuming large quantities of food'.

From the options, Option B: 'hunger' too refers to a craving for food, and it best expresses the meaning of the given word. Hence option B is correct.

Option A: 'Wild' means 'not tamed or domesticated', 'uncultured'.

Option C: 'Angry' means 'to express a strong feeling of displeasure or resentment'.

Option D: 'Quick' means 'occurring with promptness and speed'.

These words do not mean the same as the given word, hence options A, C and D are incorrect.
