This question is incomplete. Here´s the complete question.

The night dragged on with an endless, bitterly cold routine of pumping, steering and working  the radio. We were getting no replies to our Mayday Calls - which was not surprising in this  remote corner of the world.

Sue's head had swollen alarmingly; she had two enormous black eyes, and now she showed us  a deep cut on her arm. When I asked why she hadn't made more of her injuries known before  this, she replied, “I didn't want to worry you when you were trying to save us all."

Questions:

1.  How was the night described?

a. Peaceful

b. Enjoyable

c. Agonizing

d. Endurable

2. Mayday Calls refers to

a. International distress

b. International peace

c. International hay

d. International fest

3. Sue comes forth as a girl with firm ___in her parents.

a. disbelief

b. incredulity

C. skepticism

d. conviction

4. What does enormous mean?

a. miniature

b. huge

c. insignificant

d. compressed

Answer:

1.  How was the night described?

c. Agonizing

2. Mayday Calls refers to

a. International distress

3. Sue comes forth as a girl with firm ___in her parents.

d. conviction

4. What does enormous mean?

b. huge

Explanation:

The word "agonizing" refers to something that produces important physical or mental distress, such as the situation described.

A Mayday Call is the international radio distress signal for boats and planes.

Sue shows conviction, meaning a strong belief, on her parents' attempt to save them all.

The word "enormous" refers to something quite large.

If you are talking about the first of the ten commandments in Exodus, then they would be:
1. You shall have no other gods before me
2. You shall have no idols
3. You shall not take the Lord's name in vain
4. You shall remember the Sabbath and keep it holy
5. Honor your father and mother
These are in my own words, but the reference is Exodus 20:3-12 if you would like to quote them word for word. I highly recommend reading them all!
