Question: 477

5. Surprise is to startle

  • A. choose is to grab
  • B. inflate is to breathe
  • C. destroy is to ruin
  • D. need is to want

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

C is correct. This is another question that tests your knowledge of synonym pairs. Surprise and startle are synonymous just as destroy and ruin are synonymous. Choice A is incorrect because you need not necessarily grab something in order to choose it, and choice D is incorrect because need and want are often easily confused with one another.
