EnglishVocabulary: Meaning, Synonyms & Antonyms
Choose the word opposite in meaning to this word underlined below: The crowd felt stupefied by the lecture.
- a.Engulfed
- b.Entertained
- c.Enthused
- d.Encouraged
Answer: (C) Enthused
'Stupefied' means made unable to think clearly, dazed, or bored into a stupor. Its opposite is 'Enthused,' which means filled with eager interest and enthusiasm. 'Engulfed' and 'Encouraged' are not antonyms; 'Entertained' is closer but still not the best antonym.
