Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Answer: Enthusiastic
Reason: "Lacklustre" means lacking in vitality, energy, or interest; dull or uninspired.
Why "Enthusiastic" is correct: "Enthusiastic" means showing intense interest, excitement, or energy, which directly contrasts with being dull or uninspired.
Why the other choices are incorrect:
"Expensive": Relates to cost or price and has no opposite relationship with 'lacklustre.'
"Breed": Means to reproduce or produce offspring; unrelated to energy or enthusiasm.
"Dearth": Means scarcity or shortage; although it refers to 'lack' in quantity, it does not describe the opposite of dullness or lack of vigor.
