Correct Answer: enjoyment


Solution : The correct answer is the second option.

Explanation : In the context of antonyms, the opposite of exasperation would be a positive emotional state. Exasperation refers to a feeling of intense irritation or frustration, usually caused by a prolonged annoyance. On the other hand, enjoyment represents a positive and pleasurable experience.

  • Wrath : This term represents a strong and angry emotion, similar to exasperation.
  • Pique : This term refers to a feeling of irritation or resentment, similar to exasperation.
  • Resentment : This term is a negative emotion and is not the opposite of exasperation.

Therefore, the correct answer is enjoyment.
