Question

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. careless b. laid back c. sluggish d. tired

Explanation:

"Lazy" has a negative connotation. "Laid - back" means relaxed and not overly concerned, which gives a more positive spin while keeping the sense of not worrying about the future. "Careless" implies lack of attention, "sluggish" implies slow - moving, and "tired" is about physical or mental exhaustion, none of which are as appropriate as "laid - back" for replacing "lazy" to give a positive connotation.

Answer:

B. Laid back
