Select the Synonym of the word occurring in the sentence in capital letter as per the context from the given words or group of words.

The teacher BERATED his students.

  • A.praised
  • B.advised
  • C.reproached
  • D.supervised

Answer: C

The synonym of BERATED is reproached.

To berate someone is to scold them angrily and at length. To reproach is to express disapproval or disappointment at someone's conduct, so it is the closest of the options.

Praised is the opposite. Advised means gave guidance, which is neutral and calm, and supervised means oversaw their work. Neither carries the sense of angry criticism.
