Constrictive means something is restrictive.

"Keen" means either eager or sharp-witted. So, "sharp-witted" is the correct answer. For clarification, "banished" means sent away, and is an antonym of "welcomed," which means amiably received. "Ill-tempered" means crabby or cranky, and "jocular" means jovial, playful, or funny.

“Vessel” is a noun that can mean “a ship or large boat” or “a hollow container,” or chiefly in or alluding to biblical use, “a person having a particular quality.” So, “vessel” and “ship” are synonyms, and we need to pick out an answer choice that also consists of a pair of synonyms. While “report is to account” and “fascination is to ennui” might each look like a potentially correct answer, “ennui” means “a feeling of dissatisfaction arising from a lack of excitement,” making it an antonym, not a synonym, of “fascination.” So, “fascination is to ennui” cannot be the correct answer. “Report,” however, when used as a noun, can mean “an account given of a particular matter, especially in the form of an official document, after thorough investigation or consideration by an appointed person or body.” So, because “report” and “account” are synonyms, just as “vessel” and “ship” are synonyms, “report is to account” is the correct answer.

"Praiseworthy" and "commendable" are synonyms. "Vile" means foul or disgusting. "Immense" means huge or massive. "Supreme" means of the highest rank and is not quite a synonym for "praiseworthy," although something "supreme" may also be deserving of praise. "Trustworthy" means able to be trusted.

To further help you ,“fibrous” means stringy or made of fibres, so chewy meat is “fibrous.” “Sensitive” means easily offended or sympathetic to other people’s feelings.

"Berserk" means out of control, crazy, "wild." So, to solve this analogy you need to determine which of these is a synonym of "wicked" (evil, malicious). The correct answer is "dastardly," which has the same meaning. Additionally, "pristine" means immaculate, spotless, completely clean; "seldom" means rarely; "charismatic" means charming, having a personality that others find interesting and attractive; "unrepentant" means remorseless, not feeling sorry for something one has done wrong.
