Which term means a strong liking for something?

• A. Penchant
• B. Apathetic
• C. Credulous
• D. Attention Span

Answer: (A)

A strong liking for something is described by the word penchant. Penchant signals a persistent, habitual preference or liking, not just a single moment of interest. For example, saying someone has a penchant for spicy foods means they often choose or enjoy spicy dishes. The other terms don’t fit because apathetic means lacking interest, credulous means easily convinced, and attention span refers to how long you can focus. So the term that best captures a strong, recurring liking is penchant.
