Question

Choose the word which best expresses the meaning of the italicized bold part of the sentence:
A feeling of brotherhood should be nurtured in the masses.

• A. brought out
• B. brought up
• C. admired
• D. encouraged

Answer 1

The correct option is B brought up

Option B: 'Nurtured' means 'cared for and protect while they are growing'.

'Brought up' means 'to look after a child until he or she becomes an adult'.

This word means the same as the given italicized word. Hence option B is correct.

Option A: 'Brought out' means 'make someone show a quality that they have'.

Option C: 'Admired' means 'regard with respect or warm approval'.

Option D: 'Encouraged' means 'give support, confidence or hope to'.

These words do not mean the same as the given word 'nurtured'.

So, options A, C and D are wrong.
