Question : Comprehension: Read the given passage and answer the question that follows. We started our research into organisational and personal excellence by studying a slightly different topic. We figured that if we could learn why certain people were more effective than others, then we could learn exactly what they did, clone it and pass it on to others. We asked people to identify who they thought were their most effective colleagues. In fact, over the past twenty-five years, we have asked over twenty thousand people to identify the individuals in their organisations who could really get things done. We wanted to find those who were not just influential but who were far more influential than the rest. Question: Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word. Effective
Option 1: Deniable
Option 2: Harmonious
Option 3: Fruitless
Option 4: Courteous
Correct Answer: Fruitless
Solution : The third option is the correct choice.
Explanation: Effective means producing a desired or intended result. Fruitless means failing to achieve the desired results or lacking success, producing no good outcome.
In the context provided in the passage, the research is focused on finding individuals who are effective in getting things done.
Therefore, the antonym would be a situation where efforts are fruitless, meaning they do not lead to successful outcomes or desired results.
