Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
"Gracious" means courteous, kind, and polite in behavior.
Consider each choice:
Graceful — means elegant in movement or appearance; not about manners.
Polite — means courteous and well-mannered; this matches the meaning of "Gracious."
Good — a broad positive quality; too general to be a direct synonym of "Gracious."
Handsome — describes physical attractiveness and is unrelated to courteous behavior.
Therefore, the closest meaning to "Gracious" is Polite.
