Answer:
so probably you didnt ask anything...
The phrase "lily of a man" as it is used in line 3 of Gary Soto's poem most closely means an anxious weakling, as is said in option C and explained below.
To find the answer, we used our knowledge of context clues.
<h3>What are context clues?</h3>
Context clues are any words or phrases that help us figure out the meaning or connotation of other words or phrases in the same context. Here, we need to understand the meaning of "lily of a man."
The context clues used for that is "A coward I am not," the phrase that comes immediately before "lily of a man." Since both phrases complete each other, we can assume they have similar meanings.
Therefore, we can safely conclude the speaker is saying that he is not an anxious weakling, not a coward. The best answer in this case is option C.

Answer: B. We can make a lot of money from this retail opportunity.
Explanation:
Even though retail means to sell something, it is not a general substitute for the word sell. Retail refers to the act of selling or engaging in a business opportunity that requires some form of sales.
When used in a sentence, it should relate to that act rather than be used as a substitute for ''sell''. For instance, ''Jack engaged in retail by selling the cow''. Retail should refer to or describe the action - which is why it is an adjective -instead of being the action word as is the case in option 2.
The verb is "trudged".
It's the past simple form of the verb "to trudge" which is a type of a walk, usually slow and heavy as if you have weights on yourself.
