Correct answer: B
Explanation:
"Atrocious" means extremely bad, dreadful, or very unpleasant.
Correct synonym: Horrible — both words mean very bad or dreadful.
Why the other choices are incorrect:
"Beautiful" is an antonym of "atrocious" — it means pleasing or attractive.
"Lazy" means unwilling to work or make an effort; it does not mean very bad.
"Hardworking" means diligent or industrious; it is unrelated to the meaning of "atrocious."
Example: "The performance was atrocious — the acting was horrible and the audience left early."
