Question
Choose the correct one-word substitute for:
‘ A person who supports change’.
- A. Conservative
- B. Radical
- C. Reformer (Correct answer)
- D. Constitutionalist
Correct Answer
Option C — Reformer
Detailed Solution & Explanation
The correct answer is Reformer.
Key Points
- A person who supports change is a Reformer — someone who works to improve a system by changing it.
- The opposites and near-misses: a 'Conservative' resists change; a 'Radical' wants sweeping, fundamental change (more extreme than 'supports change'); a 'Constitutionalist' upholds the constitution. 'Reformer' captures the neutral, improvement-driven support for change the definition asks for.
