In reading and comprehension, even if you don't know the definition of the word, you can still somehow get its meaning through context clues. From the word itself, context clues are hint words that tell you the context of what you're reading. In this example, the word is odious. Without looking at the dictionary, we might guess that it means something disgusting or offensive because the narrator refers to it with 'unutterable loathing'. From that expression, you get the context that he hates it so much down to his core that he can't wait to get away from it.  Therefore, the answer is letter C.

levacccp [35]

Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

ineffective, because the author relies only on personal opinions rather than facts to point out problems with solar power . ineffective, because the author supports the opposing viewpoint by introducing the idea that solar power is popular . effective, because the author reveals the significant costs of readying California’s public buildings to run on solar power  effective, because the author shows that less than half of California’s energy supply comes from solar power.

Answer:

effective, because the author reveals the significant costs of readying California’s public buildings to run on solar power

Explanation:

The author of the text presents evidence on how the use of solar energy is expensive, which often makes it difficult to use this type of energy in buildings, especially public predictions. This could be a problem in California, where the demand for solar energy is high and there are many advocates who advocate the use of this energy without taking into account the expenses to maintain an uninterrupted supply of it.

What happened to Salva’s uncle? Infer: Why may this have happened?
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

Uncle was shot by the Nuer men. Salva is numb with shock but surprisingly his uncle's spirit is in him. The group treats Salva like a child, shares no food with him, and makes him feel unwanted.

inkling of what they may do.

Explanation:

Hope this helps.
