Answer:
can you please put the passage
Explanation:
The answer is: [D]: cause to become taken.
________________________________________
Explanation: Given: "the suffix -ate means 'cause to become' ;
the remaining "root" of the word: "captivate"— is: "captiv-" ;
which is similar to: "captive".
___________________________
Since all answer choices given begin with: "cause to become"; it makes sense that "cause to become taken"—which is "Answer choice [D]"; is the most appropriate—and thus the correct—answer.
"captive".
Answer:
B. She thinks of herself as silly.
Explanation:
Option B is the correct answer.
The use of the word "prattle" actually shows that she thinks of herself silly. To prattle simply means to make a sound or talk something that is foolish, silly or childish.
So, as she said "But I prattle...", this shows that she sees herself to say or utter things that are silly thereby seeing herself as silly. This means that she sees all that she has been saying as silly and childish.
Think of an equation:
200 - 91 = 109
You can do anything to this equation, as long as you do the same thing to both sides. So, if you add 91 to both sides, you will get:
200 = 200
Since this holds true, Susan's strategy to add her answer to 91 makes sense.
