Question

reap is the opposite of

obtain
cheer
continue
exist
sow

Explanation:

Define the word "reap"

The verb "reap" means to harvest, gather, or obtain a crop or reward as a consequence of actions.

Analyze the given options

• "obtain": to acquire or get, which is a synonym or closely related meaning to reap.
• "cheer": to shout for joy or praise, unrelated to reaping.
• "continue": to keep going, unrelated to reaping.
• "exist": to have objective reality, unrelated to reaping.
• "sow": to plant seeds by scattering them on or in the earth, which is the direct opposite action of harvesting (reaping).

Determine the antonym

Since "sow" is the act of planting and "reap" is the act of harvesting what has been planted, "sow" is the direct opposite of "reap".

Answer:

• obtain
• cheer
• continue
• exist
• sow (Correct answer)
