Which word means not thoughtful?

• A. Trite
• B. Belie
• C. Inadequately
• D. Engimatic

Answer: (A)

Focus on originality and depth of thought. The best fit is trite because it describes something that lacks freshness or originality—remarks or ideas that feel unthoughtful and routine. A trite statement shows little thoughtful reflection and relies on overused clichés. Belie means to misrepresent or show something to be false, which isn’t about thoughtfulness. Inadequately means not sufficiently or poorly in degree, which is about amount or quality, not specifically a lack of thought. Enigmatic means mysterious or hard to understand, not about being unthoughtful.
