Covers 1000 questions (5)
I believe the answer is:
masks
'covers' is the definition.
(masking is a kind of covering)
'1000 questions' is the wordplay.
'1000' becomes 'M' (synonyms).
'questions' becomes 'asks' (as in asking a question).
'm'+'asks'='MASKS'
(Other definitions for masks that I've seen before include "Hides, disguises" , "Coverings to conceal the face" .)
