Correct Answer: surprise


Solution : The correct choice is the third option .

Astonish means to greatly surprise or amaze someone. Surprise means to cause someone to feel unexpectedly astonished or shocked. Both of the words convey a sense of unexpected amazement or shock, which makes them synonyms.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Cheat refers to dishonest or fraudulent behaviour.
  • Simplify means to make something simpler or easier.
  • Create means to bring something into existence.
Therefore, the correct answer is surprise.
