Correct Answer: Subjectivity


Solution : The fourth option is correct.

Explanation: In the context of the sentence, detachment suggests an attitude of being emotionally removed or indifferent. The antonym should convey an engaged or involved stance, which is captured by subjectivity . Subjectivity involves personal feelings, opinions, and emotions, contrasting with the detached and objective nature implied by detachment .

So, the correct antonym is subjectivity .

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Justice : This term refers to the quality of being fair and impartial.

  • Humour : This term refers to the quality of being amusing, entertaining, or funny.

  • Neutrality : This term refers to the state of being impartial or unbiased without taking sides in a conflict or dispute.
