• A. sophisticated
• B. sophistication '
• C. sophisticate
• D. sophisticating

Answer 1

Answer:

B. sophistication '

The correct sentence is:

“The exhibition brought together several paintings whose apparent simplicity concealed considerable sophistication.”

• The word considerable is an adjective that modifies a noun. Therefore, the blank requires the noun form of sophisticated.

• Sophistication means refinement, complexity, or a high level of skill and development.

• In this sentence, the paintings appear simple, but their simplicity hides considerable artistic complexity and refinement.
