Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Delight is the correct synonym for joy, as both terms describe a feeling of great pleasure or happiness. The other options are unrelated: 'Jorvial' appears to be a misspelling or non-existent word, 'Discreet' means being careful in speech or actions, and 'Similar' means alike but not identical.

  4. Remarkable

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The question asks for a synonym of 'meteoric', which primarily means relating to meteors or meteor-like. 'Remarkable' would actually be a better fit for the secondary meaning 'meteoric rise/fall', but among the given options, 'Brilliant' is selected as correct. 'Small' and 'Legend' are unrelated.

Multiple choice
  1. Gloomy

  2. Tainted

  3. Believable

  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

None of these is correct because the other options are not synonyms for funeral. 'Gloomy' means dark or depressing, 'Tainted' means contaminated or corrupted, and 'Believable' means credible. A funeral is a ceremony for burial; proper synonyms would be burial, interment, or obsequies.
