Answer: A) Sluggish.

Explanation: Someone sluggish is a person that moves slow, that is lacking energy or alertness. In the given excerpt we can see that the word "lymphatic" is used to give the idea of Millie being sluggish, we can know that because of the context clue "had been brisked up a bit, by a few deftly chosen words of contempt" this conveys that she was slow and lacking energy until she "brisked up." So the correct answer is option A.

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

B) While most modern zoos do not teach animals to perform "tricks," they do train animals to respond to certain commands to make them safer to handle, move and examine.

Explanation:

The sentence lacks parallelism, which occurs when there are similar grammatical structures within senteces and paragraphs. In the sentence given, the last part that refers to the reasons why animals are trained has different and incorrect verb forms, which make the sentence difficult to read. Thus, the correct version includes the full infinitive <em>to </em>for the verbs <em>handle, move </em>and <em>examine</em>.
