Find meaning in context

At the local gallery, a spacious room held a collection of remarkable objects. One display was enormous, while another was tiny. A curator described a sturdy wooden chest beside a fragile glass bowl. Although the room was busy at lunchtime, it became quiet near closing time. Visitors could admire the ancient tools before moving on to a modern sculpture.
4.From “The exhibition”, write one pair of synonyms and one pair of antonyms. Label each pair S or A.

Choose words precisely
