Answer:

Derided

Explanation:

The word "derided" most closely resembles the word "mocked." To deride means to laugh at in contempt or to mock. In this passage, we learn that the character feels himself to be a creature driven and derided, or mocked, by vanity. If we are not able to look a word up in the dictionary, context clues can often give us an inclination as to what the meaning of the word might be.

Identify the type of transitional word or phrase in the sentence below:
Vinil7 [7]
The right answer is D) Cronological.

Explanation:
When something is ordered chronologically, it means that there’s either steps, or a history to be explained before getting to the end result. You can tell the transition is D because of the use of the word “First” which is letting you know that there are more things in order after that step.
