A Correct answer
Explanation

The word 'shallow' means lacking depth, either physically (not deep) or figuratively (superficial). The opposite of shallow is 'deep,' which can refer to physical depth, profundity of thought, or intensity of feeling. 'Project' means to extend outward, 'contraband' refers to illegal goods, and 'ruddy' describes a reddish complexion - none of these are true antonyms of shallow.
