Question

Choose the word which can be substituted for the given words/sentence:
A group of three novels or plays, each complete in itself

• A. Triplet
• B. Triumvir
• C. Trilogy
• D. Trivet

Answer 1

The correct option is C Trilogy

Option C: 'Trilogy' is 'a set of three works of arts that are connected'. These 'works of art' include 'novels, plays, movies' and so on.

This word means the same as the given phrase and can hence substitute for it. So, option C is correct.

Option A: 'Triplet' is 'one of the offspring that are born at the same birth'. Just as there are twins (two), there are triplets (three).

Option B: 'Triumvir' is 'one of three public officers jointly responsible for governing a state or country'. (ancient Rome)

Option D: 'Trivet' is like a larger version of a tea coaster, to place hot vessels on a table without damaging the table from the heat.

These words do not mean the same as the given phrase. Hence they cannot substitute for it and options A, B and D are wrong.
