In English, the use of synonyms and antonyms not only enriches one's vocabulary but also helps to convey shades of meaning and context more precisely. Consider the following sentence: 'The expansive vistas from the peak allowed us to see the entire valley stretched out below.' Identify two synonyms for 'expansive' that could be used in place of the original word to maintain the sentence's meaning, and two antonyms for 'stretched' that would also fit appropriately within the context. Explain how each replacement word changes the tone or emphasis of the sentence in a different way.Answer sheet:
