A Test of Verbal Responsiveness

Sponsored Links

Hi!! Today I want to ask you all a very profound question.

How many of us really exercise our brains?

Fortunately or unfortunately physical workout any day has edge over mental workout. Most of us hardly ever consider the fact that the brain which functions perennially (just like the heart) has to be exercised too…for better performance. Isn’t it pathetic? Research studies prove that mental exercises will make an average performer an extraordinary achiever. Brain teasers, crossword puzzles, sudoku and many other mind-chiseling equipment certainly refine your thinking and comprehension abilities.

As a deviation from norm, I would like you all to participate in a simple yet interesting game which will sharpen your reasoning skills. I present for you all a simple aerobic exercise for your brain!! All you need is a pen/pencil and a scribbling pad. Just note down these 25 words that follow and give me the equivalent (synonym) of the word starting with P. Exciting isn’t it!!…I now look forward to your responses…

I will give the equivalents of the first three words starting with P.I guess this will make your understanding better.

1. bucket…Ans) pail

2. faultless…Ans) perfect

3. maybe….Ans) perhaps

4. forgive

5. mollycoddle

6. steal

7. annoy

8. good-looking

9. picture

10. choose

11. ugly

12. go

13. revolt

14. treachery

15. stone

16. inactive

17. fussy

18. suffering

19. light-colored

20. gasp

21. fear

22. eulogize

23. artist

24. sheet

25. collection

26. chastise

27. skin

28. tap

You can now start working.

Thinking is a quintessential skill. We all are born with congenital thinking ability. But only a few of us develop that ability into a skill. These gifted people are the successful lot.

I am sure with a little amount of thinking you can find the equivalents beginning with P for all these words. I don’t say you should know the answers intuitively. You can pretty well depend on your Vocabulary learning resources- dictionaries, word lists, thesauri etc. But work!! I mean both mentally and physically.

Dear students please do not wait for ready made answers. Such answers just cheat you. They stay in your short-term memory for a while and evaporate forever. In other words they fool you. But if you really put in a diligent effort to know the equivalents of these words, all these words, their meanings and synonyms will be with you for a lifetime boosting your confidence whenever you feel a paucity of it.

So pull up your socks for a great mental (a little physical too) exercise. I promise this is going to be a great learning experience.

And remember: There is no shortcut to success!!
