Choose the word which is CLOSEST in meaning to the word given in the question:
FABULOUS
Show Hint
- Auspicious
- Astonishing
- Credible
- Rigorous
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
(1) Auspicious: This refers to something that is promising or favorable for the future, especially in terms of good luck. This is not close in meaning to "fabulous."
(2) Astonishing: This means something that is extremely surprising or impressive. "Fabulous" and "astonishing" share similar meanings, as both can describe something that is extraordinary or awe-inspiring.
(3) Credible: This means believable or trustworthy. While it is a positive attribute, it doesn't align with the meaning of "fabulous," which refers more to something amazing or impressive.
(4) Rigorous: This means something that is strict or thorough. It is unrelated to "fabulous" in meaning.
Therefore, the word astonishing is the closest in meaning to "fabulous."

Astrologers habitually prone to goof-ups now have an excuse for why their predictions have been going haywire: the emergence of newer and newer planets that have caused their calculations to go awry. For the international zoom of astronomers who recently discovered eight new planets, new arrivals are, however, a cause of excitement. Indeed, even as the rest of the world continues to be consumed by a morbid passion for shiny new machines, deadly chemicals, and sinister war tactics, astronomers have been doggedly searching the heavens for more heavenly bodies in the belief that the search will take us closer to a more exalted goal, that of knowing the truth about us and the universe. ”Reality is much bigger than it seems... the part we call the universe is the nearest tip of the iceberg,” one scientist remarked. How true. In the beginning, sceptics could not accept that the Earth not only moves, but alone that it revolves around the Sun, because of an unshaken belief that the Earth was the centre of the universe. We’ve come a long way. Today, scientists have spotted nearly 80 extra-solar planets using sophisticated instruments.
