If the word hideous replaced the word raggedy then, Beneatha would be harshly criticizing her mother instead of gently teasing her.
Answer: Option D
<u>Explanation:</u>
The conversation provided here is a part of the play ‘A Raisin in the Sun’ which is written by Lorraine Hansberry. In the play, Beneatha is describing the plant as ‘raggedy looking.’ Raggedy means shabby and worn out.
If instead of raggedy, the word hideous is used, then it would totally change the tone of Beneatha. Hideous is rather a harsh word which means ugly or disgusting. So if she would have told ‘hideous looking’ instead of ‘raggedy looking’ then she would be criticizing her mother instead of teasing.
