Question 6 of 10

Which term would replace the underlined word to give the sentence a more positive connotation while not changing the overall meaning?

He is lazy and never worries about what tomorrow will bring.

A. Laid back
B. Sluggish
C. Tired
D. Careless



Answer :

Final answer:

Replacing 'lazy' with 'laid back' provides a more positive connotation without changing the meaning of the sentence.


Explanation:

To give the sentence a more positive connotation while not changing the overall meaning, the term that could replace 'lazy' is laid back. This term implies a sense of being relaxed and unconcerned rather than negative attributes like laziness or carelessness.

By using 'laid back' instead of 'lazy,' the sentence can convey a more positive tone without altering the core message about someone who does not worry about the future.

Other synonym options such as 'careless' or 'sluggish' do not fully capture the positive connotation needed in this context like 'laid back' does.
