Which term means 'horrible or unpleasant'?

• A. Abominable
• B. Haphazard
• C. Incandescent
• D. Invariably

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is choosing a word that conveys an extremely negative or disgust-worthy quality. Abominable fits that sense perfectly: it describes something that is horrible, detestable, or causes strong dislike. You’ll often see it used for conditions, acts, or behavior that are especially objectionable, like “an abominable mess” or “abominable weather,” to emphasize just how bad it is.

The other terms don’t match the sense of strong unpleasantness. Haphazard means random or careless, not inherently disagreeable. Incandescent means emitting light or, metaphorically, brilliantly impressive, which isn’t about unpleasantness. Invariably means always or without variation, which also doesn’t convey any negative quality.
