It is highly improbable that it will snow in June.

Step 1: Analyze the question You are asked to choose the option that best restates the meaning of: "It is highly improbable that it will snow in June."

Step 2: Explain the concept The key word is improbable. It is the opposite of probable (likely), so it means unlikely. The word highly is an intensifier, so "highly improbable" means "very unlikely".

Step 3: Check each option

• A. It is highly unlikely that it will snow in June. "Improbable" and "unlikely" are synonyms, so this keeps the same meaning. ✔
• B. It is possible that it will snow in June. This is technically true of anything improbable, but it shifts the emphasis to possibility. The original sentence stresses how unlikely it is, so this does not capture the main idea. ✘
• C. It will never snow in June. "Never" is absolute. "Improbable" is not the same as "impossible", so this overstates the meaning. ✘
• D. The snowfall will probably be high in June. This is about the amount of snow and says it is likely, which is the opposite of the original. ✘

Step 4: Answer The correct option is A.

Tip: Watch the prefixes and root words. Im- (as in improbable) means "not", so improbable = not probable = unlikely. Also be wary of absolute words like "never" and "always" in options, because they are usually wrong when the original sentence uses a softer word like "improbable".
