Solution

The correct option is B Adjective of quality

The adjective in the given sentence is ‘strange’. It is an adjective of quality that tells you what a person or thing is like, i.e. their nature. Thus option B is correct. On the other hand, an adjective of size tells us about the size of the noun, which could be a person or thing, like ‘big building’ or ‘tall boy’. Whereas an adjective of origin tells you the place a person or thing comes from or the place they belong to, like ‘Mexican hat’ or ‘French flag’. While an adjective of colour describes the colour of things, for example, ‘red cake’ or ‘white dress’. Since the given adjective indicates the quality and not the size, origin or colour options A, C and D are incorrect.
