    Explanation
    The word "assess" means to evaluate or determine the quality or ability of something. In the given sentence, the word "assess" fits perfectly as it indicates that the vocabulary test is being used to evaluate or measure how well the person has learned the SAT words.

    Explanation
    The word "lucid" means clear and easily understood. It is often used to describe someone's thoughts or writing that is logical and easy to follow. Therefore, "clear" is the correct synonym for "lucid" as it accurately captures the meaning of the word. "Gloomy" means dark and depressing, "normal" means usual or typical, and "helpful" means providing assistance. None of these words have the same meaning as "lucid."

    Rate this question:

    Correct Answer
    A. Inartistic

    The word "aesthetic" refers to something that is visually pleasing or beautiful. The antonym of aesthetic would be something that is not artistic or lacking in artistic qualities. Therefore, "inartistic" is the correct answer as it means lacking artistic qualities or not being artistic in nature. "Weak" and "harmful" do not have opposite meanings to aesthetic and are therefore incorrect.
