Choose the alternative which best expresses the opposite meaning of the underlined phrase in the following sentence.
You should not look down upon those who are financially weak.
The phrase "look down upon" means to regard someone with contempt or disdain, often due to their perceived inferiority.
The opposite of this would be to regard someone positively or with affection, which is best expressed by "love" given in Option C.
The other options—"abhor" (to detest), "be unsympathetic to" (to lack compassion), and "hate" (to strongly dislike)—all convey negative attitudes, which do not oppose the meaning of "look down upon."
