Discussion
The government introduced several measures to alleviate poverty in rural areas.
Answer: B
The synonym of alleviate is reduce.
Alleviate means to make suffering, a problem or a burden less severe: to alleviate pain, alleviate poverty. Measures that alleviate poverty reduce it.
Increase is the opposite. Observe means to watch or notice, and ignore means to pay no attention; neither has anything to do with lessening a problem. A related word is mitigate, which also means to lessen.
