Answer:

  • Inclined
  • Incisive

Explanation:

To be inclined to do something means to be disposed or willing to do something. In this case, by saying that Jacob was not inclined to rest or trade places with anyone even though he had been driving for a long time, the author implies that Jacob did not want to do any of these things.

In the second case, the word "incisive" describes speech that is keen, clear and direct. Comedians often use incisive language due to their ability to make acute observations of their audience.

1. Inclined

Inclined means to be favorable towards something. In this sentence Jacob is not inclined or not in favor of switching spots with anyone else in the car.

2. incisive

Incisive means cutting (think incision like in surgery). In this case the word biting is the context clue that tells us incisive, or cutting, would be the best fit.

Statements such as always, everybody, and never are cue words for which of the following?
AnnZ [28]
Words like <em>never, always, everybody, </em>etc. are absolute nouns and adverbs. In argument, these are usually a sign of over-generalization. These words alone cannot be considered as any kind of appeal (emotional, logical or ethical) since these appeals are done depending on how you use these words, not on the meaning of words as stand-alone.
