Solution

The correct option is B Mild
The correct answer is Option C.
PEREMPTORY means to insist and demand obedience or attention. It is to be harsh and severe on someone.
MILD means to be calm and tender.
Thus both the words are opposite to each other in meaning, making Option C the correct answer.
The remaining options are incorrect because:
AUTHORISE means to empower someone.
SOLEMN means formal or dignified.
MIND is a plant.
