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.

If the bold sentence is in fact As he tells the story he never smiles, and he never frowns",then it is most likely the human foible due to it being an interesting characteristic. We can also determine this answer through process of elimination if we know the meaning of hyperbole, and "funny name". 

Hyperbole is an exaggeration and is not normally meant to be serious, and in the case of your summary, I believe this line is meant to be taken serious. This doesn't seem to be a funny name reference, so your only option is human foible.

The most accurate answer for this would most likely be answer choice A.

Not only does that answer have words directly from the excerpt to support it, but the cottage is described as being a pleasant and homey space that everyone can gather in. With the words “lived in,” it shows that the cottage is happy and lively.

I hope this helps! :)
