In order to emphasize the contrast between a sunrise and the author’s attitude, the latter wants to use two adjectives that are

derived from the same root word. Which choice best accomplishes this goal?
Sunrises are, I admit, generally very majestic. But usually (if I have my way) anything that occurs before 8 a.m. is wasted on me. When the sun begins his incredible ascent, I prefer to be an inglorious huddle of sheets, crusted with sleep and willfully blind.

Choose 1 answer:
[A] NO CHANGE
[B] glorious ascent, I prefer to be an inglorious
[C] glorious ascent, I prefer to be a ragged
[D] stunning ascent, I prefer to be a pitiful

Answer:

B. Glorious ascent, I prefer to be an inglorious

Explanation:

The question specifically says that you need two adjectives derived from the SAME root word. Among all the choices, B is the best answer because they both use the same root word.

The root word of <u>glorious</u> is gloriosus which means full of glory, which is also the root word of in<u>glorious. </u>

"In-" is a prefix which means "not". So inglorious means shameful or without glory, which is in contrast to the word <u>glorious.</u>

<h3>What festival was the lupercal?</h3>

This was a festival that was celebrated in the ancient city of Rome in order to purify the city.
