Question:

Which of the following words is the antonym of MITIGATE?

1.
Alleviate
2.
Lessen
3.
Aggravate
4.
Calm

Correct Answer: Aggravate

"Mitigate" means to make less severe; its opposite is "aggravate" (to worsen). "Alleviate" and "lessen" are synonyms — the classic trap — and "calm" is merely adjacent in meaning.
