Kalam experienced communal harmony.<\/strong><br>\u2705 <strong>a) unity<\/strong><br><strong>Explanation:<\/strong><br>&#8220;Communal harmony&#8221; refers to a peaceful and cooperative relationship between different communities, especially religious or ethnic groups. The synonym <strong>&#8220;unity&#8221;<\/strong> captures this sense of togetherness and mutual respect. The other option, <strong>&#8220;innocence&#8221;<\/strong>, relates to purity or lack of guilt, which is unrelated to the idea of harmonious social relations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Jainulabdeen possessed great wisdom.<\/strong><br>\u2705 <strong>c) sacred<\/strong> is incorrect<br>\u2705 <strong>None of the listed choices are accurate synonyms for \u201cwisdom.\u201d<\/strong> However, if forced to choose from these, <strong>&#8220;inborn&#8221;<\/strong> might loosely connect to natural wisdom, though <strong>&#8220;wise&#8221;<\/strong> or <strong>&#8220;intelligent&#8221;<\/strong> would be better synonyms. The correct answer is <strong>missing<\/strong> in the list.<br><strong>Explanation:<\/strong><br>Wisdom refers to deep knowledge, good judgment, or insight. &#8220;Inborn&#8221; means innate or natural, which might describe a <em>type<\/em> of wisdom but is not its synonym. &#8220;Famous&#8221; means well-known, and &#8220;sacred&#8221; refers to something holy. Therefore, none are exact synonyms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Hindu families lived with their Muslim neighbours.<\/strong><br>\u2705 <strong>c) cordially<\/strong><br><strong>Explanation:<\/strong><br>The sentence implies that Hindu and Muslim families lived together peacefully and respectfully. <strong>&#8220;Cordially&#8221;<\/strong> means in a warm and friendly manner, making it the appropriate synonym. <strong>&#8220;Emotionally&#8221;<\/strong> refers to feelings, and <strong>&#8220;quietly&#8221;<\/strong> refers to noise level, neither of which matches the intended meaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Sivasubramania Iyer was not perturbed.<\/strong><br>\u2705 <strong>b) worried<\/strong><br><strong>Explanation:<\/strong><br>To be &#8220;perturbed&#8221; means to be disturbed or anxious. So, <strong>&#8220;worried&#8221;<\/strong> is a correct synonym. <strong>&#8220;Flustered&#8221;<\/strong> can also mean agitated or confused, which is close, but &#8220;worried&#8221; directly addresses the sense of mental disturbance that &#8220;perturbed&#8221; conveys. <strong>&#8220;Denied&#8221;<\/strong> has no relevant connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Sivasubramania Iyer&#8217;s wife was very conservative.<\/strong><br>\u2705 <strong>a) traditional<\/strong><br><strong>Explanation:<\/strong><br>&#8220;Conservative&#8221; refers to someone who holds traditional values and is resistant to change. <strong>&#8220;Traditional&#8221;<\/strong> is the correct synonym. <strong>&#8220;Ideal&#8221;<\/strong> means perfect or best possible. <strong>&#8220;Liberal&#8221;<\/strong> is the opposite of conservative, meaning open to change or new ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u2705 unity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2716 none match exactly (closest: inborn)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2705 cordially<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2705 worried<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2705 traditional<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>These choices reflect accurate meanings that help learners understand subtle word relationships in context.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner8-787.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-237029\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tick the correct synonyms of the words underlined. 1.
