The sentence "Beth and Melissa were both late since she had lost her watch" is ambiguous because the pronoun "she" can refer to any of the two girls.
In order to eliminate such ambiguity, we could rewrite the sentence in the following ways:
- Beth and Melissa were both late since the former had lost her watch.
- Beth and Melissa were both late since the latter had lost her watch.
The word "former" is used to indicate the first-mentioned of two people while the word "latter" is used to indicate the last-mentioned of two people.

This expression "....Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free." implies that the people had got closely together - huddled- because they were tired and were yearning for freedom. Therefore, option D. <em>Tired / yearning</em> is the correct one. A. <em>Give / your </em>will not be helpful to infer the context since 'your' by itself conveys no meaning. B) <em>Masses / free </em> refer to the fact that the masses desired to be free , but they do not refer to the reason why the masses had got to be closely together. C) <em>Breathe / me </em> are not giving any hints; to breathe refers to the desire of the masses to be free and 'me' is a pronoum which by itself means nothing in this context.
