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

In order to create a more positive connotation where implying the word "nosy" as a negative implication, it could have been replaced with the word "curious".

Curious implies that they are just trying to observe and learn. Nosy means they are being somewhat intrusive.

I think D: "prying" is the answer because it says that they observed the lions routine so there watching the lion.

(I hope this helped you if not sorry but I'm very positive about my answer.)

What mistake did pony boy make in the beginning of the book? the outsiders
Aloiza [94]
When Pony is coming back from the movies, he realizes he is alone. His first mistake is that he didn't stop to wait for Darry, Sodapop, or one of the gang members to go with him to the movies. This results in him walking home alone, which in turn makes him easy bait. He then gets jumped by the Socs, all because he didn't wait for someone else to go with him.
