4 meters. That's 400 centimeters which is clearly greater than 28 cm.
Answer:
D. encompassed
Explanation:
This is the excerpt from James Joyce's "Araby".
The word bazaar might also be confusing, so let's just say it's a kind of open market.
So, we have a boy who rushes into that market and finds him self in a hall around which is a gallery with lots of empty, closed stalls.
That can be enough to infer the meaning of the word "girded" which is "surrounded", "encompassed" or "encircled".
He tries to save himself-- he boards a boat with all of the town's gold to try and escape.
Hope this helped!
B. chicken and dumplings
It's because the 'chicken and dumplings' is renaming the noun 'meal' that is already there. Usually to find an appositive phrase, just look beside the noun and see if the sentence works without the words beside it.
