English

The word 'aromatic' means having a pleasant and distinctive smell. The antonym would be a word meaning unpleasant or offensive in smell, which is best captured by 'Disagreeable' among the options. 'Odorous' means having a smell, not necessarily unpleasant, so it is not the correct antonym.

The word 'hassle' means a bother or a dispute, which is closest in meaning to 'wrangle' (a noisy or angry argument). The other options do not convey this meaning.

The word 'conspicuous' means easily seen or noticeable. The best antonym is 'indistinct' or 'inconspicuous,' meaning not clear, not easily seen, or not attracting attention. Among the given options, 'insignificant' relates more to importance rather than visibility, so it is not the best antonym. Since none of the options A (Indifferent), B (Harmless), or C (Insignificant) correctly mean 'not noticeable,' the correct answer is 'D' (None of these).

The word 'blemishes' in the sentence refers to imperfections or faults in the writer's style. Among the options, 'Faults' best matches this meaning, making option D correct.

The word 'detect' means to discover or identify the presence of something. Among the options, 'Discover' is the closest synonym, while 'Invent' and 'Determine' have different meanings. 'None of these' is incorrect since 'Discover' fits well.

The word 'fickle' means likely to change frequently, especially in feelings or loyalties. Among the options, 'Changeable' best matches this meaning, making it the correct synonym.

The word 'exhaustive' means thorough and complete, covering all possible items or elements without omission. Therefore, an 'exhaustive list' is a list that is comprehensive and includes all relevant items, which aligns with the meaning of 'Long' rather than 'Meticulous.' 'Meticulous' means careful and precise, which is not the same as exhaustive. Hence, the correct answer is 'C' (Long).

The antonym of 'confess' is 'deny' because to confess means to admit or acknowledge something, while to deny means to refuse to admit or reject it.

The word 'condemn' means to express strong disapproval or to blame someone or something. Among the options, 'Blame' is the closest synonym, as it conveys assigning fault or disapproval, which aligns with the meaning of 'condemn'.

The word 'expeditious' means done with speed and efficiency, so a 'prompt' reply is the correct synonym. 'Exact' and 'Slow' do not match the meaning of 'expeditious.'
