• A. Lazy
• B. Industrious
• C. Inconsistent
• D. Procrastinating

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, 'Industrious.' Assiduous means showing great care and perseverance in your work, which aligns with being industrious. Choice A, 'Lazy,' is incorrect as it is the opposite of assiduous. Choice C, 'Inconsistent,' does not directly relate to being assiduous, and choice D, 'Procrastinating,' suggests delaying tasks which is contrary to being assiduous.

Therefore, the correct answer is 'Infected.' Choices B, C, and D are incorrect. Odorous means having a smell, terminal means leading to death or the end of something, and vigorous means strong or energetic. These terms do not capture the essence of septic as being infected.
