  • A Truthful / an uninteresting
  • B Factual / an unpleasant
  • C Genuine / a ridiculous
  • D Painstaking / a half-hearted
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
genuine means when something is said to be; authentic.
To be ridiculous is to be something which is highly absurd or inferior, sometimes deliberately so to make people laugh or get their attention, and sometimes unintendedly so as to be considered laughable.
in this regard, the officer wanted a genuine (authentic) report of events, but what he got was rather luaghable (unreasonable, odd, meaningless)
