Answer:

The correct answer is (D) Villains.

Explanation:

A fiend can be defined as an evil or a bad person. This word is also used to indicate that there is an evil spirit or what we call a demon. So, the word fiend is used to talk about somebody who is doing or performing bad things; thus, the answer is villains.

Why would readers most likely skim text rather than scan something when reading? 1 They may want to gain a general understanding
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

3. They may not have time to read the whole thing.

Explanation:

1: You cannot gain a general understanding by skimming a text.

2: It doesn't make sense to skim a text if you need help defining a word, because part of defining a word is looking for context clues.

4: If they are looking for specific information they would have to analyze the text instead of quickly looking over it.

Therefore 3 is the right answer. Hope this helps :)
