Have you ever fallen out of a flying sleigh led by eight reindeer going at 100 or more miles per hour? yeah me neither. that is, until last Christmas. I was going downstairs for a cup of hot cocoa when I heard a loud THUMP. At first, I thought it was a burglar and panicked. but then I saw a pair of black boots and an enormous red body strolling around my living room.
When he saw me, he almost jumped with fright. He told me that I shouldn't be there. Shouldn't be there? It's my own house? He's the one who was breaking and entering! I was about to tell him off when he flew up onto the roof and shouted for the reindeer to move. What on earth was happening? Was I seriously getting kidnapped by Santa Claus?
I must have been dreaming. When the sleigh started to move, I nearly threw up. But eventually i calmed down. It was actually really fun. but soon we were going really fast. before i knew it, we were in paris! i watched the beautiful city drift underneath us and fell into a trance. We soon floated up above the clouds. all of a sudden, the sleigh was moving out of control! we couldnt get it to go back on track. i felt so dizzy, i nearly fell out the sleigh! actually i did!
i was falling down through the soft clouds as i watched the starry sky swirl above my head. before i knew what had happened, i was in my bed, drifting fastly to sleep.
<span>In the opening sentence of the story the author states that "you were always a gambler" and you, "took chances." This shows that the main character is willing and able to take any and all risks necessary in order to escape slavery. This sets the tone for the type of person that the main character strives to be. The text foreshadows more to describe the main character being on a wooden ship.</span>
Question:
The Latin prefix pro- means in favor of or in front of. Duct is the latin root for to lead. The suffix -ive means able to bring about a certain action. Based on its root affixes and context what does produce most likely mean in this sentence from paragraph 1?
a. able to bring useful results
b. able to work closely with others
c. able to argue in favor of something
d. able to stay ahead of others
Answer:
The correct answer is A)
Explanation:
To get it right, one must consider the prefix, the suffice and the affix.
Lets look at this together:
Option A: In front of + Lead + bring about a certain action or
Option B: In favor of + Lead + bring about a certain action
So the affix which is key in our analysis is lead but it doesnt tell us much without the prefix and suffix.
"In favor of" speaks to a positive quality. The only option on the list which has a positive quality is A which means to create something <u><em>useful</em></u>.
Cheers!
