Correct Answer: Scarce


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

The word rife means widespread or abundant, often with negative connotations. In this context, you are looking for an antonym, a word with the opposite meaning. Scarce is the most appropriate antonym, indicating something that is in short supply or lacking.

The other options do not convey the opposite meaning effectively.

Therefore, the right answer is scarce .
