Question

develop
which word is closest in meaning?
○ distort
○ remove
○ grow
● reduce

"Reduce" means to make smaller or less, and among the options, it has a meaning that aligns with the context of finding a synonym (assuming the target word is related to reduction). "Distort" means to twist, "Remove" is to take away, "Grow" is to increase, while "Reduce" fits the idea of a similar meaning related to decreasing.
