  2. B. Withdrawn
  3. C. Depressed (Correct answer)
  4. D. Regret

Correct Answer

Option C — Depressed

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is Depressed.

Key Points

  • The analogy is degree/intensity: 'Exhausted' is an extreme form of 'Tired.' Similarly, 'Depressed' is the extreme, clinical form of 'Sad.' Emotional (general feeling), Withdrawn (behavior), and Regret (a different emotion) do not fit the same intensity pattern.
