Out of the given alternatives, choose the one which can replace the word printed in italics in the sentence without changing the meaning of the sentence.
The sentiments expressed by him in the speech were odious.

• A. significant
• B. hateful
• C. admirable
• D. common

Answer 1

The correct option is B hateful

The highlighted word means 'hateful'.

Option B is correct. As we can see, the option has the correct meaning and thus, it is correct.

Options A, C and D are incorrect. They do not have the required meaning.

'Significant' means 'important' and 'admirable' means 'deserving approval and esteem'.
