A Correct answer
Explanation

Facile means easy to do, effortless, or superficial (done without deep thought). Effortless is the correct synonym - both describe something achieved with little difficulty. Difficult is an antonym (opposite). Thoughtful and careful imply deliberation, which contradicts the 'easy/superficial' meaning of facile.
