SSC CHSL 2025 Tier 1 Question Paper (21-Nov-2025) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Expert

The sentence calls for a single word describing a person who is highly educated and skilled in one specific field, so we test each option against that precise sense.

One-word substitution replaces a whole descriptive phrase with the most exact noun; here the phrase is 'a person who is highly educated in a specific field'.

An 'expert' is someone who has acquired authoritative knowledge, training and practical mastery of a particular subject, which matches the phrase exactly.

A 'novice' is a beginner or learner, the very opposite of deep expertise, so it cannot fit.

A 'master' suggests control or command over a craft rather than specialised scholarly learning, and a 'prodigy' is a young person with exceptional inborn talent, not necessarily formal expertise.

Since only one option captures highly educated command of a specific field, the precise one-word substitution is Expert.
