Question: 496
9. Select is to choose as
- A. accept is to deny
- B. pardon is to excuse
- C. smile is to laugh
- D. rid is to leave
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
B is correct. This is another question that tests your knowledge of synonym pairs. Select and choose are synonymous just as pardon and excuse are synonymous. Choice C is incorrect because, although both words denote pleasure or happiness, they are not synonymous. Choice E is incorrect because squander means "to fail to take advantage of," and skimp means "to provide for or supply inadequately."
