Question

Pick up the word with the closest meaning.
Patronize

• A. oppose
• B. support
• C. bless
• D. organise

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: “Patronize” can have two meanings: to treat someone in a condescending manner or to support or sponsor something, such as a business or cause.

Step 2: In the context of the question, “support” aligns with the meaning of “patronize” as in supporting or giving business to.

Step 3: “Oppose” means to act against something, “bless” refers to giving a blessing, and “organize” means to arrange or manage something, none of which match the meaning of “patronize” in the context of support.

Thus, the correct answer is: “support.”
