Correct Answer: slow


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

Explanation: The word "rapid" means fast or quick. Therefore, the opposite, or antonym, is a word that represents slowness. The word "slow" accurately conveys the opposite meaning of "rapid."

So, the correct sentence would be: "The flow of the river is very rapid now. Let's go in when it's a little slow."

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

Fast: This means moving or being capable of moving at high speed.
Quick: This means moving or being able to move fast or quickly.
Delayed: This means made to occur later or postponed.
