Correct Answer: Arrogant


Solution : The most appropriate choice is the first option.

Servile means showing an excessive willingness to please others, whereas arrogant is someone who behaves unpleasantly towards others because they believe that they are more important than others, thereby being the opposite of servile .

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Sheepish means feeling embarrassment or shame due to a lack of self-confidence and is not the antonym for servile .
  • Bickering is arguing about trivial matters, which is also not the opposite of servile.
  • Cunning means showing skill in achieving their goal by deceit.
