The word nearest in meaning to 'appetite' is

  • A.hunger
  • B.disgust
  • C.hatred
  • D.distaste

Answer: A

The word nearest in meaning to appetite is hunger.

Appetite is the natural desire to eat, and more broadly a strong desire for something (an appetite for adventure). People with 'big appetites' are hungry and eat a lot, so hunger is the closest match.

Disgust and distaste are feelings of dislike or revulsion, the opposite of a desire for food, and hatred is intense dislike of a person or thing. None of them means a desire to eat.
