D
Involving volunteer work
The term ‘lucrative’ describes something that generates a large amount of profit or financial reward, especially when referring to a job, business, or career. It suggests that the activity brings significant monetary benefit and is financially worthwhile.
- A. Offering minimal pay: This suggests little financial reward, which is the opposite of lucrative. A lucrative career is known for high earnings, not low wages.
- C. Being unprofitable: Something unprofitable does not generate income or gain, directly contradicting the meaning of lucrative.
- D. Involving volunteer work: Volunteer work is typically unpaid and done out of goodwill, which does not align with the profit-making nature of a lucrative career.
- B. Producing a great deal of profit: This option correctly captures the financial reward and gain implied by the word lucrative.
