The word "impartial" is the most effective choice in the given sentence because it conveys the idea that the person in question does not take sides and remains fair and unbiased in their judgments or actions. This fits well with the context of someone who is careful and does not exhibit favoritism or prejudice.

The other words, while related to the concept of being unbiased, may not fit as precisely in the sentence or may have slightly different connotations:

"Unbiased" is also a suitable choice, but "impartial" is more commonly used in contexts like this.
"Neutral" implies a lack of preference but may not necessarily convey the same level of fairness and impartiality.
"Prejudiced" is the opposite of what the sentence is trying to convey, as it means having a bias or preference.

Unbiased is not wrong either as it denotes taking sides or making a decision favouring a party so that can be used too.

Neutral means not partial impartial or prejudiced if someone is very careful it should be neutral.

I think 'neutral' is the best fitting word :3.

Thank You.

Unbiased is used for things. Hence impartial is used. And prejudice is no where fitting in this sentence.

Prejudice means and unfavorable opinion without knowledge or reason.

Unbiased and impartial are the same. Can anyone explain to me why "impartial" is the appropriate answer?

NIVEDITA said:   1 decade ago
Prejudiced means To cause(someone) to judge prematurely and irrationally.
but here he is very careful person therefore prejudiced is wrong

Also Unbiased means showing no prejudice for or against something; (BUT HERE NO SCENARIO IS MENTIONED AGAINST OR FOR WHICH HE WILL ACT).

THEREFORE CORRECT IS IMPARTIAL.

I think D part is correct due to presence of BUT. He never take side means directly he is not taking side, may be indirectly.
