Discussion
Which of these are antonyms of 'Bleak'?
a. Dismal b. Cheerful
c. Dreary d. Bright
e. Desolate
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Answer: B
The antonyms of 'bleak' are b and d: cheerful and bright.
'Bleak' means cold, cheerless and without hope, as in a bleak landscape or a bleak future. Its opposites describe something hopeful and full of light: cheerful and bright.
Dismal, dreary and desolate are synonyms of bleak, all meaning gloomy or empty, so every option containing a, c or e is wrong.
