A person of bad character and habits.

A person of bad character and habits.

• A. Urbane
• B. Soporific
• C. Reprobate
• D. Verdant

Answer: (C)

This item tests your vocabulary for describing a person with poor moral character. The best fit is a noun that means a person of thoroughly bad character and habitual vice. That word captures not just a momentary flaw but a pervasive depravity in conduct, which matches the prompt “a person of bad character and habits.” Urbane describes someone refined and polished in social manners, which is the opposite of bad character. Soporific refers to something that induces sleep or dullness, not a moral judgment. Verdant means green or inexperienced, again not about character or conduct.
