Correct Answer: worsen


Solution : The most appropriate antonym of the underlined word is the first option.

The antonym worsen is the best fit because it contrasts with rectify in the sense that rectify means to make something right or better, whereas, worsen means to make something wrong or worse.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Alter means to make changes to something without necessarily making it better or worse.
  • Reason means to think, understand, and form judgements logically or thoughtfully.
  • Modify means to make changes or adjustments to something.
