Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.

______! What have you done to your hair? You are looking so odd.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Goodness gracious.

  • "Goodness gracious" is an exclamation expressing surprise or shock, which fits the context of someone reacting to an unexpected and startling change in appearance.
  • The given sentence is an example of an exclamatory sentence.
  • The other options ("hurrah," "bravo," "bother") are not suitable because they either express joy, approval, or mild annoyance, none of which align with the context of expressing surprise about someone's odd appearance.
