Correct Answer: warmth


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The sentence describes the feeling of the sun on the person's face as a welcome relief from the cold morning air. The word chill in brackets signifies the coldness or coolness associated with the morning air. So, the contrasting feeling caused by the sun on the face would be its opposite, which is warmth.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Glow refers to a gentle, constant light that something warm or radiant emits.
  • Blush means a reddening of the face due to embarrassment, shyness, or some emotional response.
  • Brightness means the quality or state of being bright or emitting a lot of light.
