Analogy — “Uneasy” contrasts with “Quiet”; in the same way, “Fit” contrasts with ____. (Select the antonym.)

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Unfit

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
The prompt pairs “Uneasy” with its contrasting state “Quiet” (calm). We must similarly oppose “Fit,” the state of being suitable or healthy, with its direct antonym “Unfit.”


Given Data / Assumptions:

  • We follow antonymic contrast.
  • “Fit” is read as suitable/appropriate (also compatible with healthy).


Concept / Approach:
Choose the clear and direct antonym: “Unfit.”


Step-by-Step Solution:

1) Identify relation: adjective vs contrary state.2) Map Fit ↔ Unfit.3) Eliminate synonyms of suitable.


Verification / Alternative check:
Common English usage lists fit/unfit as standard opposites in suitability and health contexts.


Why Other Options Are Wrong:

Proper/Suitable/Pertinent/Able: all align with suitability or capability, not the opposite.


Common Pitfalls:
Choosing a near-synonym because it “sounds positive,” rather than the opposite term.


Final Answer:
Unfit
