Given how many hoops students have to jump through just to walk across the stage in a cap-and-gown, it seems ludicrous to suggest yet another graduation requirement, but that is precisely what i am advocating. what word is the best synonym for the word ludicrous in this sentence?

In this passage, the word ludicrous is used as a word to describe the many graduation requirements that students have to fulfill. The implication in the text is that the idea will not be well-received. There are several words that we could use in this text instead of ludicrous, such as "bizarre," "outlandish" or "preposterous."

a. is the correct answer

the narrator is saying that the old lady made her feel uncomfortable. you know this because they say "i found that rather irksome", "perhaps it was her being so upright and trim", and "i don't think it was that, because i thought that quaintly pleasant." hope this !
