Answer:
The words that could fill the blanks in each case are:
- <em>Mi tía es </em><u><em>mexicana</em></u><em>. Vive en Guadalajara. </em>
- <em>Mi primo no es rubio, es </em><em><u>blanco</u></em><em>. </em>
- <em>Mi novio cree que la clase no es fácil; es </em><u><em>difícil</em></u><em>. </em>
- <em>Los libros son </em><u><em>interesantes</em></u><em>; me gustan mucho. </em>
- <em>Mis hermanos son </em><u><em>tímidos</em></u><em>; no tienen muchos amigos. </em>
- <em>Las gemelas tienen quince años. Son </em><u><em>quinceañeras</em></u><em>.</em>
Explanation:
The translation of the sentences is:
- My aunt is <u>Mexican</u>. Lives in Guadalajara.
- My cousin is not blond, he is <u>white</u>.
- My boyfriend thinks class is not easy; it's <u>hard</u>.
- The books are <u>interesting</u>; I like them very much.
- My brothers are <u>shy</u>; they do not have many friends.
- The twins are fifteen years old. They are <u>quinceañeras</u>.
Since there are no options to choose the most appropriate word, I have selected for you those that I consider best apply to the context of the sentence, as I explain below:
- <em>"Mexicana"</em> is chosen because it is mentioned that he lives in a state of that country.
- <em>"Blanco"</em> is chosen since it could be another option, in addition to brown or perhaps Caucasian.
- <em>"Difícil"</em> is the opposite of easy.
- Regularly when a book likes it very much, it is very "interesante."
- Shy people regularly have few friends.
- In many Latin American countries, girls who turn 15 are called <em>"quinceañeras."</em>
Colorado — This is the past participle of colorar, which means to give something color, such as by dyeing. The participle, however, specifically refers to red, such as red earth.
Florida — Probably a shortened form of pascua florida, literally meaning "flowered holy day," referring to Easter.
Montana — The name is an anglicized version of montaña, the word for "mountain." The word probably comes from the days when mining was a leading industry in the region, as the state's motto is "Oro y plata," meaning "Gold and silver." It's too bad the "n" of the spelling wasn't retained; it would have been cool to have a state name with a letter not in the English alphabet.
New Mexico — The Spanish Mexico or Méjico came from the name of an Aztec god.
Texas — The Spanish borrowed this word, spelled Tejas in Spanish, from indigenous residents of the area. It relates to the idea of friendship. Tejas, although not used that way here, also can refer to roof tiles.
