This question is missing the options. I've found them online; they are the following:
Which word best describes Annie in this excerpt?
A. intelligent
B. reckless
C. confident
D. polite
Answer:
The word that best describes Annie in this excerpt is:
C. confident
Explanation:
Let's take a look at the following line from the excerpt:
<em>ANAGNOS: Annie, be- humble. It is not as if you have so many offers to pick and choose.</em>
<u>It is the line above that reveals what we need to know about Annie. Anagnos is telling her to be humble because, at this moment, she sounds overly confident. She even says she only has trouble when she is right, and that she is not the one to blame if she has trouble so often. Annie's confidence is actually quite close to becoming arrogance. She is willing to behave, but Anagnos still feels the need to tell her to be humble.</u>
He uses the word "careless"
I believe it is A.) simple
That's definitely false. You know the media.
