Through my binoculars, I viewed a group of wild animals in action. A pride of lions was sleeping when a small, yellow bus pulled

up beside them. Tourists on a safari were packed into the bus like sardines in a can. Armed with cameras, they invaded the lions' territory, hoping to capture the perfect photograph. The crowd leaned out the windows, hooting and hollering, until the lions awoke. When the lions moved away, the bus rolled after them, relentlessly stalking the pride. One of the lions turned and roared to protect the young. This was greeted with cheers and a celebratory honk of the bus horn. The curious visitors observed the lions' routine for an hour before moving on. Leaving a cloud of dust, the bus headed away, taking the wild animals off to disturb someone else's home.
Review the following line from the text:

The nosy visitors observed the lions' routine for nearly an hour before moving on.

To create a more positive connotation, the author could have replaced the word nosy with which of the following synonyms?

Curious
Intrusive
Meddlesome
Prying

Answer:

Curious.

Explanation:

All of the options available are synonyms of the term <em>"nosy"</em>. However, the term <em>"curious"</em> describes the group of visitors' own nature without negative connotations, whereas the rest of the options have an accusatory tone to them and suggest the tourists behave in an inappropriate manner.

Kaylis [27]

Which of these statements from Walking with the Wind: A Memoir of the Movement by John Lewis is an implicitly stated opinion on the nation's state of affairs during the civil rights movement?

A. I've said this many times: If he had been born in another time, in another place, or of another race, A. Philip Randolph would have been a prime minister, or a president, or a king.

B. The movement had a goal of an integrated society, an interracial democracy, a Beloved Community. What Malcolm X represented were the seeds of something different, something that would eventually creep into the movement itself and split it apart.

C. He was the undisputed leader, the undisputed symbol of what the movement had come to, at least at that point in time. His very presence spoke for itself.

D. There was a tremendous need then, and there remains a need today, for someone to take hold of the urban centers in the North and give them that sense of direction.

MissTica
<span>In these two stories or literary novels"Sixteen" by Maureen Daly and "Through the Tunnel" by Doris Lessing "who are both authors or wordsmiths, Maureen Daly and Doris Lessing" uses a theme, subject, or topic matter of their characters or dramatis personae who are wanting to prove, validate, and justify themselves to someone. However, the differences, distinctions ,or variation of these two stories or literary novels becomes starkly useless , entirely obsolete, and exhaustively and consummately kaput when who or whom the two characters or dramatis personae aspire to prove, validate, and justify themselves to. In "Sixteen" by Maureen Daly the principal character, main character, or dramatis personae seems to be attempting or trying really and truly hard to prove, validate, and justify herself to the reader, that she is insightful and perceptive enough and popular enough to congruous be  telling this story or literary novel. But ​in "Through the Tunnel" Jerry  attempts or tries really and truly hard to prove, validate, and justify himself to the older, mature looking men he looks up to and withal to himself. Throughout each story or literary novel, the characters or dramatis personae attempt or try to prove, validate, and justify something to themselves or other people or characters. In Doris Lessing's short story  or literary novel"Through the Tunnel"" by Doris Lessing" the principal character, main character, or dramatis personae who or whom we can apperceive or apperceive as Jerry  opportunely  accommodated or made acquaintance himself with a group of older, mature looking men hanging around in a wild-looking bay, cove ,or estuary full of rocks. These two completely and totally different  short stories or literary novels  "Sixteen" by Maureen Daly and "Through the Tunnel" by Doris Lessing are both chock full of  kindred spirits predicated on the absolute fact that both characters or dramatis personae attempt </span> <span>or try to prove, validate, and justify something to someone, but they are  different because those someones are different in these two stories or literary novel. While both stories or literary novels are starkly different in subject, theme ,or topic matter that both principal characters, main characters, or dramatis personae attempt or try to prove, validate, and justify themselves to someone. In "Sixteen," by Maureen Daly it is the reader. In the story or literary novels "Through the Tunnel," by Doris Lessing it is the older, mature looking men and later himself that makes Jerry to push past his inhibitions and fears and conquer or overcome them . The second homogeneous or same attribute or kindred characteristic between the two stories or literary novels is that the people or characters who had transpired to repeal the principal characters, main characters ,or dramatis personae which of course whom never present themselves again, are the leading cause that  prompts  both characters or dramatis personae in these two stories or  literary novels by of course being ostentatious with their earnest and veracious and genuine general and exhaustively simply authentic and true feelings and motivations all throughout these two stories or literary novels.</span>
