Answer:

C.is not engaging or imaginative

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting an essay with a definition isn't imaginative because it's been done too many times over and isn't engaging because,well when was the last time anyone has cracked open the dictionary and said,"Hey I found this really interesting definition today!" never. It's just not a very professional way to start an essay and many English teachers will agree.
