Option 1: perceive
Option 2: apprehend
Option 3: murky
Option 4: envision
Correct Answer: murky
Solution : The third option is correct.
Vivid in this context means clear, distinct, or highly detailed. The word murky is its opposite, meaning unclear, obscure, or hazy. In the sentence provided, murky contrasts with vivid as it describes a memory lane that is unclear or not easily understood, thereby serving as its antonym.
The meanings of the other options are as follows:
- Perceive : That means to become aware of, notice, or understand something through the senses or mental faculties.
- Apprehend : This means to understand or grasp something, especially complex or abstract ideas.
- Envision : This means to imagine or visualise something in one's mind.
