In the first sentence, the author refers to the door as "discreet." What can you determine from this description?

Question

a. The door is creaky
b. The door is quiet
c. The door is gaudy
d. The door is oversized

Answer 1

The term "discreet" typically implies something that is careful or unobtrusive, often suggesting that it blends in well or is subtle. Based on this description, the most appropriate answer is:

b. The door is quiet.

While "quiet" is not a precise synonym for "discreet," it aligns with the idea of being unobtrusive. The other options do not fit with the connotation of "discreet."
