Frederick the king was ______.

  • A.ordinary
  • B.different
  • C.pompous
  • D.aloof

Answer: B

The answer is different.

The passage opens by calling Frederick the Great 'a king with a difference'. It then explains the difference: he was extraordinary, yet he loved to mix with ordinary subjects. 'Different' restates that first sentence.

'Ordinary' contradicts the passage, which says he was extraordinary. 'Pompous' and 'aloof' also contradict it, since a king who mixes with his people in a coffee-house is neither proud in manner nor distant from them.
