Correct Answer: Morose


Solution : Let's check each option –
First option: Gladsome→Gladsome means having a cheerful disposition.
Second option: Morose→Morose means sullen and ill-tempered.
Third option: Joyous→Joyous means full of happiness and joy.
Fourth option: Cheerful→Cheerful means noticeably happy and optimistic.

So, the second option is different from the other three options as here the word is an antonym instead of a synonym. Hence, the second option is correct.
