Answer: A) While breaking one pencil during the SATs is bad luck, breaking six pencils is downright abysmal.

Explanation: the definition of abysmal is something that is extremely bad, terrible or severe. In the first option the word "abysmal" is used correctly because it is referring to how terrible it would be to break six pencils during the SATs. In options B, C and D, the correct word to use instead of "abysmal" is "abyss" which means a very deep gulf or hole, it can be used literally or figuratively.

The only correct sentence is the first one - While breaking one pencil during the SATs is bad luck, breaking six pencils is downright abysmal.
In all the other options abysmal is used instead of abyss, which is why they are all incorrect.

emmainna [20.7K]

So I normally use the word Climax but I'm assuming that climax and main action are the same thing. The main action is definitely (B) - Mary's husband tells her that he is leaving her, because that is what starts the suspense.

Please tell me if that isn't right, I think it is.

Read the excerpt below from act 1.2 of The Tragedy of Julius Caesar and complete the instruction that follows.
dlinn [17]
What the section above basically says is: They offered him a crown, but he pushed it away with his hand, and then his people started shouting. These lines are from Julius Caesar, a tragedy written by Shakespeare. It retells the historical events of Julius Caesar's life, politics, and ultimately his death, having been betrayed and murdered by one of his closest friends, Brutus. Casca, who says these words, is one of the people who actually killed Caesar. hope this helped =)
