Fill in the blank with the correct word from the options given below:

You mustn't wear ____ clothing to the glass workshop as it is susceptible to fire.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

The clothing being warned against must be the kind that catches fire, since the workshop is 'susceptible to fire'. 'Inflammable' means easily set on fire (the 'in-' here is intensive, not negative). 'Incombustible' means fireproof, 'incorrigible' means beyond correction, and 'inimitable' means impossible to imitate, so only 'inflammable' fits.
