The opposite of 'austerely' is....
(a) beautifully.
(b) simply.
(c) plainly.
d) ostentatiously​

Answer 1

Answer:

(1) Option (d) i.e. Going to the temple

(2) Option (c) i.e. simply

Explanation:

Any of the options mentioned in first question can be correct. Why?

Because, grammatically there's no error in the sentence if we use any of the four options.

However, ascetic is a term related to a person who lives a simple life and had left all luxuries of life. Such a person can also said a saint.

So, for first part "going to temple" is most appropriate, grammatically as well as logically.

For second part, I don't think much explanation is required since we have to simply choose a word that is antonym of the given word.
