Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Answer: Boring
Definition: "Riveting" means extremely interesting or engrossing; it captures and holds attention.
Synonyms: Gripping, engrossing, captivating — these words have a similar meaning to "riveting."
Antonym: Boring — not interesting or dull, the opposite of "riveting."
Why the other choices are wrong: Fatuous means silly or foolish and is unrelated to being interesting; Acquiesce means to accept or agree and is a verb that does not relate to the quality of being engrossing.
