Antonym of CANDID.

**The reasoning** An antonym is a word with the **opposite meaning**. CANDID means honest, straightforward, and open in expression—someone who speaks their mind without hiding anything. So we need the option that means the **opposite** of being open and honest. That's **Hidden/Evasive** (Option B). When you're evasive, you deliberately avoid giving direct answers; you hide the truth or dodge questions. This is the exact opposite of being candid. **Why the wrong options tempt you** - **Frank** (A) and **Open** (C) are actually *synonyms* (same meaning) of candid, not antonyms! This is the classic trap—JAMB loves testing if you know the difference. - **Curious** (D) means inquisitive or eager to know. It's unrelated to honesty or openness, so it's neither synonym nor antonym—just a distractor. **Quick takeaway** Candid = brutally honest and open; its opposite is someone who *hides* or *evades* the truth. Always check: am I looking for "same" or "opposite"?
