Easy

Choose the most appropriate adjective to fill in the blank in the given sentence:

Bravo! You have come up with such a _____ idea!

  1. naive
  2. brilliant
  3. redundant
  4. minute

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Option 1 -> "naive" suggests lack of experience or wisdom, which contradicts the celebratory tone of "Bravo!"

Option 2 -> "brilliant" means exceptionally clever or outstanding, perfectly matching the praise implied by "Bravo!"

Option 3 -> "redundant" means unnecessary or superfluous, which is negative and doesn't fit the context.

Option 4 -> "minute" means extremely small, which doesn't align with celebrating an idea.

Hence, Option 2: brilliant -> The exclamation "Bravo!" indicates strong approval and celebration, requiring a highly positive adjective. "Brilliant" is the only word that conveys the exceptional quality worthy of such praise. -> correct
