"Different from the painted-over red lanterns, others (made of thick cutout cardboard) had their designs drawn upon the paper windows, so that the candle's light seemed to emanate from the form and color of the design itself." Which word or phrase could replace the word "emanate" in the excerpt? A. Shade B. Originate C. Look like D. Move toward

Answer 1

I believe the correct answer is: B. Originate.

 

I believe the word or phrase that could replace the word "emanate" in the excerpt is originate, as the word emanate and originate are synonyms (meaning: originate from; be produced by). In this excerpt is said that the wanted effect is to look like candle’s light was coming from the design itself.

Answer 2

The word or phrase could replace the word "emanate" in the excerpt is "Originate". So the answer to your question would be letter B. Emanate and originate are synonyms so they have the same meaning that is why it can be replaced to this excerpt.
