She remained _____ to the outcome, showing little interest.

• A. Indifferent
• B. Indigenous
• C. Index
• D. Income

Answer: (A)

Expressing lack of interest or concern toward the outcome is what this item communicates. The blank should describe her attitude toward the result. Indifferent fits perfectly, meaning not caring about the outcome and showing little interest. So the sentence reads: She remained indifferent to the outcome, showing little interest. The other options don’t describe a mental stance toward a result: indigenous means native to a place; index is an indicator or list; income is money earned. If you wanted to stress not wanting to engage, you'd use uninterested, but indifferent here conveys a neutral, not-care attitude toward what happens.
