Well, if you want something that's as anti-reflective as my sense of fashion, I'd have to go with a pillowcase. Those things are so good at soaking up light, it's like they're trying to give it a big cozy hug. Plus, they're softer to touch than metal, and definitely won't give you a distorted reflection like a mirror. So, grab a pillow, put on your favorite comedy show, and bask in the light-absorbing glory of a pillowcase!

The material that is least likely to reflect light is a pillowcase.

The material that is least likely to reflect light is a pillowcase. To understand why, let's consider the properties of the other options.

A sheet of metal is highly reflective because it has a smooth and polished surface, which allows light to bounce off it easily.

A mirror is specifically designed to have a very high level of reflectivity. It consists of a glass surface with a thin, reflective metal coating, typically aluminum or silver. The smoothness and metallic nature of the coating make mirrors highly reflective.

Water, on the other hand, can actually reflect some amount of light, especially when the surface is smooth and calm. However, compared to a sheet of metal or a mirror, water has a significantly lower reflectivity.

Now, coming to a pillowcase, this material is usually made of fabric, which has a porous and textured surface that tends to diffuse light rather than reflect it. The fibers in the fabric scatter and absorb the light, reducing the amount of reflection and making a pillowcase less likely to reflect light compared to the other options.

So, the correct answer is a pillowcase.
