Which word might be used to describe how a very cautious mouse walks past a sleeping cat in a cartoon?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Warily

Explanation:

A very cautious mouse would warily walk past a sleeping cat. When someone is wary, they are cautious, careful.

<em>To maneuver</em> means  <em>to move skilfully or carefully</em>, but it would not be used in the context of a mouse. For example, you could maneuver while driving a car.

The remaining two words have completely different meanings. <em>Matronly</em> means <em>of, relating to, or having the characteristics of a matron</em> (usually a mature and dignified married woman who has an established social position).

<em>Odious</em> means <em>extremely unpleasant.</em>

stira [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

is naked feet warm by the fire, rubbing them at first, of course, with snow. The fire was a success. He was safe. He remembered the advice of the old-timer on Sulphur Creek, and smiled. The old-timer had been very serious in laying down the law that no man must travel alone in the Klondike after fifty below. Well, here he was; he had had the accident; he was alone; and he had saved himself. Those old-timers were rather womanish, some of them, he thought. All a man had to do was to keep his head, and he was all right. Any man who was a man could travel alone. But it was surprising, the rapidity with which his cheeks and nose were freezing. And he had not thought his fingers could go lifeless in so short a time. Lifeless they were, for he could scarcely make them move together to grip a twig, and they seemed remote from his body and from him.
