The administrators went on to implement yet another unreasonable measure, arguing that the measures were already ___ and one more would hardly make a difference.

  • A.reflective
  • B.utopian
  • C.luxuriant
  • D.unpopular

Answer: D

The word is unpopular.

The administrators' argument is that one more unreasonable measure 'would hardly make a difference' because the existing measures were already disliked. Only 'unpopular' supplies a quality that the new measure would merely add to: people already resented the measures, so another one would not change their attitude.

'Reflective' (thoughtful) and 'utopian' (idealistic, impractically perfect) contradict 'unreasonable', and 'luxuriant' means growing richly, which makes no sense of measures. None of them supports the 'hardly make a difference' reasoning.
