B. synonyms.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know, a thesaurus is a type of dictionary that provides synonyms for words. A dictionary is a book, even if an electronic one, that provides the meanings, synonyms, and other types of information such as origin and pronunciation for words. Therefore, both the dictionary and the thesaurus offer one information in common: synonyms.

When we look up the word "compliment", this is what comes up in a thesaurus:

SYNONYMS FOR compliment

admiration adulation applause blessing commendation courtesy endorsement homage ovation tribute acclaim acclamation appreciation approval bouquet cajolery comp confirmation [etc.]

2: to present with a token of esteem
