    Question

    Select the most appropriate option to substitute the bold

    segment in the given sentence. He is no better than a careless person.
    A not better Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B no worse Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C no best Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D no good Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The phrase no better than is correctly used to compare someone unfavorably, but if the context is negative, the opposite phrase no worse than fits better to express a negative comparison.
    Not better is grammatically correct but less natural here.
    No best and no good are incorrect in this context.
    Therefore, the best substitution is no worse.
