Which sentence uses the word brazenly correctly?

Question

1. The cat crept brazenly across the lawn toward the unsuspecting bird.
2. When the pole vaulter failed to clear the bar, he fell brazenly to the ground.
3. The coffee bar’s security camera showed a customer brazenly taking money out of the tips jar.
4. After Oscar got home, he showed off his brazenly haircut.

Answer 1

Here you need to remember that something "brazen" is shameless, or doing an action that you know is morally bad, but you don't care who sees you or what they think.

1. Is it bad for the cat to eat the bird? Should he feel bad about it? Maybe, but it's natural for cats to hunt other animals.
2. When the pole vaulter falls, is that morally bad? Or just a low quality performance?
3. Is stealing money morally bad? Is it something people usually judge as inappropriate and wrong?
4. Can a haircut be morally questionable? Should you feel bad about it?

With these ideas in mind, you can see that the clearest answer choice is number 3.
