Correct Answer: luxurious


Solution : The correct option is the first option.

Explanation:
Luxurious best fits the context of describing opulent or lavish surroundings, indicating a high level of comfort and wealth. The sentence implies that she lived in surroundings that were well-equipped or affluent, indicating a level of luxury and comfort.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Luxuriousness refers to the quality or state of being luxurious, but it doesn't fit well in the sentence structure.
  • Luxury refers to a state of great comfort or elegance, but in this context, "luxurious" better fits the description of the surroundings.
