Question

Select the option that can be used as a one-word substitute for the given group of words. A person who eats too much

• A. Fatalist
• B. Sycophant
• C. Misogamist
• D. Glutton

Answer 1

Answer:

D. Glutton

A Glutton is a person who consumes food or drink in excessive amounts, often driven by an insatiable appetite rather than actual hunger. The term implies a lack of self-restraint and is frequently used to describe someone who overindulges habitually. In a broader sense, it can also refer to someone who has a limitless capacity for something else, such as a "glutton for punishment." To distinguish it from the other options: a Fatalist is someone who believes all events are predetermined by fate; a Sycophant is a person who acts obsequiously toward someone important to gain an advantage (a "yes-man"); and a Misogamist is someone who hates or strongly opposes the institution of marriage.
