For every word a sentence is given, you have to find out the option which represents the similar meaning to the given word.
OPPROBRIUM - The police had to bear the opprobrium generated by their blatant partisan conduct.
Explanation:
Opprobrium is ‘a case of shame and disgrace’. From the options, although 2 and 3 may fit the context but 1 is the most appropriate. Partisan conduct is being partial. That can generate criticism and where police or the legal guardians are concerned, harsh criticism. Stark oppressiveness (option 4) does not fit the context. Hence, the correct answer is option 1.
