Which one of the following words is most opposite to the meaning of the word 'undisputed' as used in the passage?

  • A.Challenging
  • B.Doubtful
  • C.Deprived
  • D.Emphasized

Answer: B

The word most opposite to 'undisputed' is doubtful.

The passage says the US is 'no longer the undisputed engine of growth'. Undisputed means accepted by everyone and not open to question. Its opposite is something whose status is in question, that is, doubtful (or disputed).

Challenging means testing or difficult and does not describe a status open to doubt. Deprived means lacking something, and emphasized means stressed; neither is an antonym of undisputed.
