Daily Vocabulary from Indian Newspapers (26 August 2025): DAILY QUIZ

1. The critic’s review reflected her profound __________ toward the controversial film, simultaneously praising its artistic innovation while condemning its disturbing themes.

Ambivalence refers to having mixed feelings or contradictory attitudes toward something, which perfectly captures the critic's simultaneous praise and condemnation. The sentence structure ("simultaneously...while") clearly indicates conflicting emotions. Indifference (A) suggests a lack of interest rather than conflicting feelings. Antipathy (C) implies only negative feelings, missing the positive aspect. Enthusiasm (D) suggests only positive feelings, ignoring the criticism. Bewilderment (E) indicates confusion rather than the coexistence of opposing viewpoints that characterizes ambivalence.

2. Which word best captures the meaning of “brimming” in the context of emotional or physical fullness?

"Brimming" means to be completely full to the point of overflowing, making "overflowing" the most precise synonym. This word conveys the sense of abundance that reaches or exceeds capacity, whether referring to physical containers or emotional states (e.g., "brimming with confidence"). Depleted (A) and diminishing (E) suggest the opposite of fullness. Containing (C) implies holding something but doesn't capture the sense of being filled to capacity. Approaching (D) suggests moving toward fullness but not achieving it, missing the completeness that "brimming" implies.

3. Which concept represents the strongest antonym to “retaliation”?

Retaliation involves responding to harm or wrongdoing with revenge or payback, making forgiveness—the deliberate choice to release resentment and forgo revenge—its strongest antonym. Forgiveness represents the conscious decision to break the cycle of retribution that retaliation perpetuates. Vengeance (A) is essentially synonymous with retaliation. Reciprocity (B) involves mutual exchange but doesn't necessarily oppose retaliation. Punishment (D) and justice (E) can sometimes involve retaliatory elements and don't represent the merciful restraint that forgiveness embodies.

4. A literary character who constantly seeks admiration, believes in their own superiority, lacks empathy for others’ struggles, and becomes enraged when criticized would most likely be diagnosed by a psychologist as exhibiting:

Narcissism is characterized by grandiose self-regard, excessive need for admiration, lack of empathy, and hypersensitivity to criticism—all traits explicitly described in the scenario. This psychological concept encompasses the pattern of inflated self-importance combined with inability to recognize others' needs. Melancholia (A) refers to deep sadness or depression. Paranoia (C) involves suspicious and distrustful thinking rather than self-aggrandizement. Altruism (D) represents selfless concern for others, the opposite of narcissistic behavior. Stoicism (E) involves emotional restraint and acceptance, contrasting with the emotional volatility typical of narcissistic responses to criticism.

5. In academic and professional contexts, “prognosis” most precisely refers to:

Prognosis specifically denotes a prediction about how a situation will develop and what the likely outcome will be, most commonly used in medical contexts but applicable to any predictive assessment. The word inherently looks forward, using current evidence to project future developments. Option (A) describes retrospective analysis rather than forward-looking prediction. Option (C) focuses on present assessment without the predictive element essential to prognosis. Option (D) describes theoretical models rather than specific predictions. Option (E) refers to evidence compilation without the forecasting component that defines prognosis.
