Question

Choose the option closest in meaning to the word Bamboozled.

• A. Amused
• B. Deceived
• C. Perilous
• D. Gloomy

Hint:

Think of a word for being tricked or fooled, not a mood or a danger.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Bamboozled means to trick, confuse or fool someone, usually to gain an advantage over them.
Step 2: Amused means entertained, Perilous means dangerous, and Gloomy means sad or dark, so none of these carry the sense of being tricked.
Step 3: Only Deceived matches the meaning of being fooled or misled. The answer is Deceived.
