stepladder [879]

Answer:

A young woman who embraced new fashions and new attitudes of the day.

Explanation:

In the given excerpt from Agatha Christie's The Murder on the Links, the speaker talks about how she detests modern girls<em> "who jazzes from morning to night, smokes like a chimney, and uses language which would make a billingsgaté fishwoman blush!" </em>This is exactly what a "flapper" is, a young woman who cares nothing except for her own enjoyment.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
