Correct Answer: keen


Solution : The correct answer is the second option.

The word eager suggests enthusiasm or a strong desire to do something, and the word keen means having a strong or enthusiastic interest or desire. So, keen is the most appropriate synonym.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Irksome: It means annoying or irritating.

  • Dubious: It means doubtful or uncertain.

  • Unconcerned: It means not involved or interested.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: "He is very keen to join the Air Force."
