Answer:
penury (Chapter 1)
emaciated (Chapter 4)
adduced (Chapter 8)
Explanation:
I've chosen the three words above from the novel "Frankenstein" by Mary Shelley. After looking them up in a dictionary, I was able to define them as the following:
penury - oppressive lack of resources; extreme poverty.
emaciated - thin and weak due to lack of food or due to illness.
adduced - past form of adduce - to give reasons as to why you believe something to be true.
Now, let's write sentences with the same context as given in the text of the novel:
Original: [...] while the number of half-clothed children gathered about it spoke of penury in its worst shape.
New sentence: The penury that desolates the country is clearly noted in children's bare feet and bloated stomachs.
Original: My cheek had grown pale with study, and my person had become emaciated with confinement.
New sentence: Her once glowing skin was now emaciated after a whole month in the hospital.
Original: [...] and as her confusion had before been adduced as a proof of her guilt, she worked up her mind to an appearance of courage.
New sentence: My tears were adduced as proof of my feelings for the deceased young man, even though I denied knowing him at all.
