Question : Choose the word that is opposite in meaning to the given word.
Desert
Option 1: Migrate
Option 2: Populate
Option 3: Bereft
Option 4: Forlorn
Correct Answer: Populate
Solution : The correct option is the second option.
Explanation:
Populate
means to fill an area with inhabitants or to be densely occupied by people or living things. It stands in contrast to
desert,
as it implies the act of adding inhabitants or filling an area rather than leaving it barren or empty.
The meanings of the other options are as follows:
- Migrate means to move from one place to another, often seasonally or for survival reasons.
- Bereft means deprived of or lacking something, especially a non-material possession.
- Forlorn means desolate, sad, or abandoned in appearance or feeling.
Therefore, the correct answer is populate.
