In each of the following question, four alternative meanings of a word are given. You have to select the nearest correct meaning of the given word and fill the appropriate.Visage
Correct answer: D. A person's face
- A. Vision
- B. Illusion
- C. Trunkless
- D. A person's face
Explanation
Option [D] is the correct answer because 'visage' specifically refers to a person's face in terms of its physical characteristics and expressions. Option [A], 'Vision,' is incorrect as it relates to sight, not facial appearance. Option [B], 'Illusion,' is about deceptive appearances, not facial features. Option [C], 'Trunkless,' is unrelated as it describes something without a trunk or main stem, typically in botany.
