Choose the most appropriate antonym of the below word to complete the sentence.

What looks like a convenient shortcut may prove to be very ______ in the long run.

  • A.appropriate
  • B.suited
  • C.timely
  • D.inconvenient

Answer: D

The antonym of 'convenient' that completes the sentence is 'inconvenient'. A shortcut that looks convenient may prove to be inconvenient in the long run, which is the sense of the sentence. 'Appropriate', 'suited' and 'timely' are all positive words that stand close to 'convenient', so they are synonyms and not the opposite. The question is printed with the word whose antonym is wanted left out, and the key treats 'inconvenient' as the answer.
