Question

Choose the option nearest in meaning to the word(s) or phrase in italics.
My father was at the apogee of his career when he was retired.

Options

A)
terminal point
B)
least productive stage
C)
redundant stage
D)
highest point

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

This question is asking you to pick the option that means the same thing as the word or phrase in italics, which is "apogee". The sentence says "My father was at the apogee of his career when he was retired." Apogee means the highest point. So, which option means the same thing as "highest point"? Option A says "terminal point" which means the end, Option B says "least productive stage" which means the period where someone is producing the least work, and Option C says "redundant stage" which means the stage where someone is not needed anymore. Option D says "highest point" which means the peak or the best point. Therefore, Option D is the correct answer.
