Question

the moral logic of survivor guilt
in which sentence does the greek root -path- form a word that means “a feeling against”?
a. he was filled with sympathy when he thought about his friends lost dog.
b. her antipathy towards the task grew as she realized how much time it would require.
c. the sample was sent away for a pathology review by the team of experts.
d. those with weak immune systems must be careful to avoid pathogens.

Explanation:

The Greek root -path- can mean "feeling". "Antipathy" contains this root and means a feeling against something or someone. In option B, "antipathy towards the task" implies a feeling against the task. The other options use -path- in different non - "feeling against" contexts such as "sympathy" (feeling with, option A), "pathology" (study of disease, option C), and "pathogens" (disease - causing agents, option D).

Answer:

B. Her antipathy towards the task grew as she realized how much time it would require.
