Answer 1

The correct answer is 'clear'.

Key Points

The prefix "un-" is often used to create the negative form of adjectives and verbs.
When added to "clear," it forms "unclear," which is a commonly used word meaning not clear or ambiguous.
The other options do not typically form standard English words with the prefix "un-".

Therefore, the correct answer is Option 2.

New Word Formed: unclear

Additional Information

interpret: The negative form is usually "misinterpret." "Uninterpret" is not a standard English word.
appear: The negative form is "disappear." "Unappear" is not a standard English word.
motivate: The negative form is "demotivate." "Unmotivate" is not a standard English word.
