Solution

The correct option is C sober
The correct answer is Option C.
BIBULOUS means excessively fond of alcohol.
SOBER means not affected by alcohol.
Thus SOBER is the antonym or opposite of BIBULOUS.
The remaining options are incorrect because:
FEARFUL means someone who tends to feel scared.
COWARDLY means lacking courage.
UNENERGETIC means lacking or absence of energy.
