Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Answer: Advance

Explanation: “Withdraw” means to move back, retreat, or remove oneself from a place or situation. “Advance” means to move forward or proceed. Because these words express opposite directions of movement, “Advance” is the correct antonym of “Withdraw.”

  • Why “Advance” is correct: it directly denotes moving forward, which is the opposite of moving back or retreating.

  • Why “Dislike” is incorrect: it refers to preference or feeling, not movement or direction.

  • Why “Need” is incorrect: it expresses necessity or requirement, unrelated to the concept of moving forward or backward.

  • Why “want” is incorrect: it denotes desire or wish, which is not an antonym of withdrawing.
