Question : Select the most appropriate synonym of the underlined word.
The case of Vanuatu in 2020 is a clear example of the constant and complex challenges faced by SIDS. It shows how SIDS are dealing with multiple crises at the same time and how COVID-19 has particularly exposed SIDS' extreme and interlinked vulnerabilities.
Option 1: Continuous
Option 2: Severe
Option 3: Free
Option 4: Interlaced
Correct Answer: Interlaced
Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.
Interlinked means two or more things joined or connected together, and interlaced means interwoven or crossed intricately together, which makes it the appropriate synonym for the given word.
The meanings of the other options are as follows:
- While continuous implies an uninterrupted sequence, it doesn't specifically convey the idea of things being intricately connected or linked.
- Severe suggests intensity or harshness but does not capture the notion of interconnectedness.
- Free has the opposite meaning, indicating a lack of restriction or connection.
