Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

"A. a degree is a way to measure ingredients in a recipe  B. a degree is a type of measuring stick like a ruler  C. a degree is a form of temperature measurement  D. a degree measures academic success in school"

Answer:

C. a degree is a form of temperature measurement

Explanation:

As you already know, the word "degree" can be used to indicate a temperature measurement, that is, this word can indicate measure, quantity. This concept fits perfectly in the section shown in the question above, because it allows the reader to understand that Mr. Pontellier was totally uncomfortable, since there was no way to measure his comfort so low that it was.

Answer:

D). Meanings.

Explanation:

The interpretation or meanings that one attributes to a particular word or phrase is highly determined by the knowledge he/she possesses and their sensitivity.

In the given example, the statement 'you look tired' was common to both the women and the words remain same for both however the 'meanings' they attributed to it lead to varied interpretation and understanding of the words. Their sensibility differs from each other and thus, Brook finds it comforting while Bianca takes it as 'criticism'. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
