Solution :
Given:
Astonishing : Incredible
(Both of the given words are synonyms as they

Second option:
Descend : Ascend; Descend means to move downward, while ascend means to move upward. So, the words are not synonyms.
Third option:
Stop : Terminate; Both words suggest bringing something to an end or cessation. So, the words are synonyms.
Fourth option:
Brave : Fearless; Both brave and fearless describe a lack of fear or courage. So, the words are synonyms.
