AfterBoards · Accepted Answer

The blank needs a phrasal verb meaning to regard someone with contempt or superiority. Option 1 -> looks up to -> means to admire or respect someone, which is the opposite of what's needed. Option 2 -> looks towards -> means to face or consider something, but doesn't convey attitude toward people. Option 3 -> looks away from -> means to avoid looking at something, but doesn't express contempt. Option 4 -> looks down on -> means to regard someone as inferior or with contempt, fitting the context perfectly.

If you come from a wealthy family and think you're better than everyone else, you might look down on your classmates who have less money. It's like literally looking down from a high tower at the little people below - you consider yourself superior and treat others as if they're beneath you.
