Choose the best synonyn for the italicized word in the following sentence.

"Es muy complicado pilotar mi avión."

  1. fácil
  2. difícil
  3. divertido
  4. compilado
  5. comparado
Explanation

Answer: B - The word complicado means complicated. In the context of the sentence, it refers to something that is hard to do. Hence, response B, difícil (“difficult”), is the best synonym. Response A, fácil (“easy”), is opposite in meaning to complicado. Response C, divertido, has the same beginning syllable (“di-”) as the correct answer, but its meaning (“amusing”) is completely different. The basic meanings of responses D and E (“compiled” and “compared,” respectively) are completely different from the meaning of complicado, although both compilado and comparado are phonetically similar to it.
