Match List I with List II.
| List I | List II |
|---|---|
| a. Fertile | I. Un |
| b. Penetrable | II. Dis |
| c. Accustomed | III. In |
| d. Engage | IV. Im |
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Answer: B
The correct matching is a-III, b-IV, c-I, d-II.
Each word takes the prefix that forms its opposite:
- fertile becomes infertile (III, In)
- penetrable becomes impenetrable (IV, Im)
- accustomed becomes unaccustomed (I, Un)
- engage becomes disengage (II, Dis)
'Im-' is the form of 'in-' used before p, b and m, which is why penetrable takes im- and not in-. Words such as 'unfertile' or 'disaccustomed' are not standard English.
