hostility
diffidence
apathy
contempt
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is apathy.
Zeal is defined as “great enthusiasm and interest in a particular activity or cause.” Apathy, on the other hand, is defined as “lack of interest, enthusiasm, or concern.”
Hostility is defined as “a feeling of intense dislike or ill will.” Diffidence is defined as “a lack of confidence or assurance.” Contempt is defined as “the feeling that a person or thing is worthless or beneath consideration.”
Of the four options, apathy is the most opposite of zeal. A person who is apathetic does not care about anything, while a person who is zealous is very enthusiastic about something.
