The back of the seal portrays a rural shoreline scene featuring a large ship and small boat. Also included in the picture are bu
ndles of tobacco plants and cotton and a farmer working in a field. Across the top of the seal are the words “Agriculture and Commerce.” The bottom of the seal is also marked with the year 1776. In paragraph six, the word portrays means A) condescends. B) deceives. C) honors. D) reveals.
The word "portrays" means reveal, reflect, express, show, reproduce. In this case, the phrase <em>"The back of the seal portrays a rural shoreline scene featuring a large ship and small boat."</em> is the same as saying <em>"The back of the seal reveals a rural coastal scene with a large ship and a small boat."
