    B.

    Ignored

    C.

    Neglected

    D.

    Disdained

    Correct option is A

    · "Considered" means to take something into account or think about it carefully, which is the opposite of "overlooked."
    Why Are the Other Options Incorrect? · (b) "Ignored" → Incorrect; it is a synonym, not an antonym.
    · (c) "Neglected" → Incorrect; it means to disregard or fail to care for, making it a synonym.
    · (d) "Disdained" → Incorrect; it means to look down on something with contempt, which is not the opposite of "overlooked."
    Thus, the correct sentence is:
    "His request was considered by the management."
