II) The quixotic building was admired for its durable construction. III) She had a quixotic belief that everyone was inherently good.Solution
Both sentences I and III correctly use the word "quixotic." ā¢ Sentence I is correct because quixotic describes plans that are idealistic and impractical, just like Don Quixote's adventures. ā¢ Sentence III is also correct as it refers to a belief that is exceedingly idealistic and perhaps unrealistically noble. Sentence II is incorrect. The word quixotic has nothing to do with physical durability or construction. It refers to a personality trait or an idea, not a physical quality of an object. The word is derived from the literary character Don Quixote, who was known for his pursuit of noble but unattainable goals.
