Read the passage from “The Masque of the Red Death.” This passage describes an event based in history often referred to as the B

lack Death. What is it, and what caused it?
From “The Masque of the Red Death”

The “Red Death” had long devastated the country. No pestilence had ever been so fatal, or so hideous. Blood was its Avatar and its seal—the redness and the horror of blood. There were sharp pains, and sudden dizziness, and then profuse bleeding at the pores, with dissolution. The scarlet stains upon the body and especially upon the face of the victim, were the pest ban which shut him out from the aid and from the sympathy of his fellow men. And the whole seizure, progress and termination of the disease, were the incidents of half an hour.

B.
a plague that infected rats and was transmitted to humans by flea bites

C.
a breakout of tuberculosis transmitted by airborne saliva (coughing)

D.

Which word in the sentence is an adverb? That library book about aircraft likely includes many interesting pictures of planes. A
svlad2 [7]
The adverb of a sentence is a word that defines a verb. The main verb in this sentence is the word 'includes', so we are looking for the word that defines it, makes it more specific. So let's take a look at our answer choices:

A. includes

We know that includes is the verb of the sentence, so we can nix answer A right away.

B. likely

This word describes the way in which the pictures of planes were included, so this looks like a good candidate.

C. interesting

This word is an adjective defining the pictures, not the verb of the sentence, so we can scratch it off our choices

D. many

This is another adjective defining the amount of pictures there were, so we can also remove choice D from our list.

And we're left with answer choice B.
The word 'likely' is the adverb in the sentence.
Hope that helped! =)
