EnglishOne Word Substitution
- Afrivolous
- Bfacetious
- Cfastidious
- Dferocious
Explanation
‘Fastidious’ means very attentive to detail and hard to please — difficult to satisfy. It matches both ‘quick to find fault’ and ‘hard to please’. ‘Frivolous’ means not serious, ‘facetious’ means joking inappropriately, and ‘ferocious’ means fierce or cruel. Hence (c) is correct.
