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.

Read the excerpt from Thoughts and Sentiments. I saw him take a gun, a piece of cloth, and some lead for me, and then he told me
Pie

Answer:

I would say that this excerpt is used to reveal the horrors of enslavement. It seems that Cugoano described the scene with some many details for the reader to be able to actually picture what was happening, the horror suffered and how it might affect any person in that place. It was not just him suffering but there were others who he could listen to, they were also crying.
