“Elation” means great happiness. To provide further help, “misery” means great sadness and is the opposite of “elation," and “confusion” is not understanding what is going on.

“Fidelity” is another word for loyalty, which is the trait of sticking by your friends and keeping their secrets. To provide further help, a “belief” is something you think is true.

"Aroma" means the smell that something gives off and is usually used to describe pleasant smells. One might thus talk about "the aroma of cookies baking in the oven" or "the aroma of roses." "Smell" is thus the answer choice closest in meaning to "aroma."

An "antagonist" is a character in a book or play that opposes the main character. So, "adversary" is the answer choice closest in meaning to "antagonist."

"Arrogance" is the personality trait of being overly proud of oneself, and "pompousness" means excessively grandiose and proud of oneself, so "pompousness" is the correct answer.

"Deceit" means the act of intentionally getting someone to believe something false, so "fraud," which can be defined in the same way, is the correct answer.

"Course" means a route or path. You may have heard this word before; for example, a "golf course" is a series of holes that golfers play in a particular order, and, more metaphorically, a "course of action" is a plan of what steps to take in response to a specific event. While a course might be displayed on a map, "map" does not mean the same thing that "course" does. Similarly, while a train might follow a certain course, that of its tracks, "train" and "course" do not mean the same thing either. The answer choice closest in meaning to "course" is "route," so "route" is the correct answer.

A "sheen" is a gentle shine on a surface that does not waver, so "sheen" is most similar in meaning to "gloss." While you may "coat" a surface with something to make it glossy, "coat" does not have the same meaning as the other two words. "Shift," "hammer," and "rise" do not refer to luster either, so they are incorrect. The correct answer choice is "gloss."

The "magnitude" is the "size" or intensity of something. Something "trivial" may have a small "magnitude," but the meanings of these words are different. The "magnitude" of an "electrical" charge can be determined, but the meanings of these words are different as well. The best answer choice is "size."

"Venue" means the location where an event occurs, so "place" is the correct answer. Although "menu" rhymes with "venue," the meanings of these words are not the same. The best answer choice is "place". A "restaurant" or an "arena" might be a "venue" for an event, but neither word means the same thing as "venue." An "invitation" to an event would reasonably mention the "venue," but again, "invitation" does not mean the same thing as "venue."
