To answer this question, it is important to remember that words often have more than one meaning. words have both a denotation and a connotation.  a word's denotation is its exact or literal  meaning. its connotation, on the other hand, is the implied meaning of the word or the  feeling the word gives off. words may have similar denotations but have different connotations. in that case, they may not work as synonyms.  consider the word "strong." perhaps you are writing about the strongest person on earth. perhaps this person was capable of lifting 500 pounds by hand, and this person was also very kind and gentle. as you write your paper, you find you are using  the word "strong" too often. to vary your wording a bit,  you turn to a thesaurus to find some synonyms.  however, you'd quickly find that not all synonyms for "strong" will work. one synonym for "strong" is "forceful" or "tough." they wouldn't work, of course, since  your subject was gentle, not tough at all. another synonym for "strong" is "secure" -- but that doesn't describe your subject, either.also, consider the word "beautiful." you might describe a beautiful home, and in that case the synonym "decorative" would work. you might also use the synonym "magnificent" to describe a beautiful home. if describing a beautiful person, on the other hand, the synonyms "decorative" and "magnificent" would not be good choices. instead, synonyms such as "pretty," "gorgeous," or "stunning" would work better.and so, when using a thesaurus, it's best to remember that similar words are not exactly the same, and their implied meanings may differ. therefore, the answer that best fits this question is "true."
