Question

Which word refers to graceful and balanced behavior?

This question was previously asked in
SSC CHSL 2025 Tier 1 Question Paper (21-Nov-2025) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Poise

The question gives a definition, 'graceful and balanced behavior', and asks for the single word that expresses it.

The needed word should capture composure, elegance and steadiness in the way a person carries themselves.

'Poise' means a graceful, balanced and self-assured manner of behaving, especially staying calm and dignified.

This matches the definition exactly, since poise combines gracefulness with balance and control.

'Clumsy' means awkward and lacking coordination, which is the opposite of graceful and balanced.

'Grit' refers to courage and determination, not gracefulness, so it does not fit the definition.

'Frenzy' means wild, uncontrolled excitement or agitation, again the opposite of calm balance.

Therefore the word that refers to graceful and balanced behavior is Poise.
