Question

A person who helps you break the law

• A. Spy
• B. Collaborator
• C. Ally
• D. Accomplice

Answer 1

The correct option is D Accomplice

Option D: 'Accomplice' is a person who helps another commit a crime (an unlawful thing).

Hence this word substitutes the given words and option D is correct.

Option A: 'Spy' is 'a person who secretly collects and reports information about the activities of another country or organisation'.

Option B: 'Collaborator' is a 'person who works together with another person for a special purpose'.

Option C: 'Ally' is someone who 'helps and supports someone else'.

These words do not mean the same as the given group of words. So, it cannot replace them.

Hence options A, B and C are incorrect.
