'. . . . brought the Mini-Moris gradually to a stop'.
The underlined is opposite in meaning to __________.
Answer: C
The opposite of 'gradually' is suddenly.
'Gradually' means slowly, little by little; bringing a car gradually to a stop means braking smoothly over some distance. Its opposite is 'suddenly', all at once and without warning.
'Generally', 'usually' and 'mainly' describe how often or how much something happens, not its speed, so none is an antonym of 'gradually'.
