Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the word in bold: His mother never held a grudge against his father.

Question

Accepted Answer

The word 'grudge' means a persistent feeling of ill will or resentment. Its antonym would be a feeling of goodwill or kindness. Among the options, 'benevolence' means kindness or goodwill, which is the opposite of holding a grudge. 'Rancour' and 'malevolence' both imply ill will or hatred, similar to grudge. 'Revulsion' means a strong feeling of disgust, which is not the direct opposite of grudge. Therefore, the correct antonym is 'benevolence'.
