Explanation
'Complacent' means smugly satisfied with oneself or one's achievements, showing uncritical contentment. In the sentence, we must not become self-satisfied about technological progress. Among the options, 'contented' (B) is nearest in meaning, both conveying satisfaction. 'Discontented' is an antonym, while 'ignorant' and 'unsure' describe different states. Hence option B is correct. Cross-checked with Oswaal CDS Yearwise Solved Papers.
