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.

andreev551 [17]
This sentence would probably be a citation in APA style. Citations on research papers are very important since they give due credit to the original owner of the statement. Statements that don't have citations tells the readers that those statements are of the researcher/s alone which would be a problem for them if found out that it wasn't theirs to begin with. This would result to a work of plagiarism which is a grave sin in constructing research papers and is more equated with the act of stealing.
