Correct Answer: Ancient


Solution : The correct choice is the first option .

Antique refers to something that is old, often of historical or cultural significance, and typically valued for its age. Ancient is a suitable synonym in this context, as it also denotes something very old, especially from a distant past.

The meanings of the other words are:

  • New : This refers to something that has recently come into existence or is not old.
  • Gothic : This term has multiple meanings. In the context of architecture, it refers to a style prevalent in Europe during the late mediaeval period. This can also refer to a cultural and artistic movement.
  • Modern : This pertains to the current or recent time, often contrasting with things from the past.

Therefore, the right answer is ancient .
