Answer:
The aye-aye is one of the most <u>extraordinary</u>-looking creatures on earth.
Explanation:
Every word has two kinds of meaning:
- Denotation - what the word literally means;
- Connotation - the emotional or cultural association the word carries.
The word that would create the most positive connotation is <em>extraordinary. </em>When we say that something is extraordinary, we think that it's very unusual (in a positive way) or remarkable.
When something is outlandish, it is freakishly strange or odd. The connotation of this word is somewhat negative. When something is strange, it's unusual or difficult to explain, and when something is unusual, it's something that doesn't commonly occur. The words <em>strange </em>and <em>unusual </em>have a relatively neutral connotation.
Thus, the correct option is extraordinary.
