Question

what does unflattering mean in the following sentence: although tiffany liked the style of the dress, she thought it was unflattering when she tried it on. (1 point)
○ not common
○ not attractive
○ colorful
○ appealing

Explanation:

To determine the meaning of "unflattering" in the sentence, we analyze the context. The sentence has a contrast: Tiffany liked the style but had a negative view when trying it on. "Unflattering" here should relate to how the dress looked on her. "Not attractive" fits because if a dress is unflattering, it doesn't make the wearer look good (attractive). "Not common" refers to rarity, "colorful" is about color, and "appealing" is positive, which contradicts the contrast.

Answer:

B. not attractive
