Answer: The replacement word that would best clarify the meaning of "self-respect" is <u>B. confidence</u>.

Explanation: The word "self-respect" is a noun used to refer to the feeling of pride that a person has in himself/herself. In that way, <u>"self-respect" is similar to the word "confidence", which can be defined as the feeling of trust in oneself's abilities or powers</u>. However,<u> "confidence" is more specific and adds clarity</u> to the meaning of "self-respect". In contrast, the words "anger", "honesty" and "passion" are not closely related to "self-respect".

The correct answer is B. Confidence

Explanation:

In the excerpt the student wrote, the word "self-respect" refers to the pride or honor Hester has about herself to accept her situation and punishment, which is contrasted with Reverend Dimmesdale keeping the secret and living a double life. This implies, self-respect in this context refers to Hester's pride of herself and therefore this word can be replaced by the word confidence that also means to believe in oneself. Also, other words such as anger, passion or honesty are not appropriate because they would change the original meaning of the text. According to this, the word that would clarify the meaning fo "self-respect" by being more precise is confidence.

HELP ASAP WHOEVER ANSWER THIS WILL BE MARKED BRAINLIST DONT FORGET TO READ DIRECTION AND FIND THE MEANING OF CARTOON PICTURE ABO
valentina_108 [34]
The point of this cartoon is to show to meaning of global warming. It shows to do something about the world where some people think it is a hoax. While people think that it is fake it really is not. People need to help the Earth before it is too late.

I agree that Global warming is real because snow is melting and the overall temperature of the atmosphere has raised increasingly. The ocean has risen because of ice glaciers melting which can cause flooding. Lots of people do not care because they think they cannot fix it when they can. Greenhouse gases are made from gas which goes into the atmosphere and then warms up the Earth.
