This question contains a description, but it explicitly states that the mother wished that her son was not so “curious”. However complex this relationship may seem, it actually correlates positively with the blank in question, meaning that the blank also simply means “curious”.

Don’t let these devices fool you; stick to what you know and make sure you understand the sentence structure clearly before choosing an answer.
