The flood water did not recede for weeks.

  • A.Rush
  • B.Advance
  • C.Approach
  • D.Withdraw

Answer: B

The opposite of recede is Advance.

To recede is to move back or withdraw from a position; flood water recedes as it drains away. The antonym is to advance, to move forward.

Withdraw is a synonym of recede, the opposite of what is asked. Approach means to come near something and rush means to move fast; neither is the direct reverse of moving back, which is why advance is the best answer.
