We have a lot to celebrate. We have a lot to be thankful for, but our hearts are still very heavy today. Yesterday we lost a goo
d man. We lost New York City Police Officer Dennis Guerra. And I want you to understand what this means in human terms – a married father of four, just 38 years old, a hero, a man who walked into danger to try and save others, and saw it as his duty and his responsibility. We lost someone who exemplified all that's good about New York City, and my heart goes out to his family. Use a dictionary or context clues to determine the best definition for exemplified.
served as an example
changed qualities
umlauted reduction
approached
I believe the correct answer is: served
as an example.
The word exemplified is often
explained as “to be a typical example of” or “to illustrate or clarify by
giving an example”, so the best option in this case to determine the meaning of
exemplified is “serve as an example”. This is also seen from the context, as
the New York City Police Offices Dannis Guerra is all that’s good about New
York City.
