Answer: Spread/ Reverberated
Explanation:
<em>Rumors of a new principal </em><em><u>spread</u></em><em> down the halls of the hectic and chaotic high school. </em>
As there are no options given, I gave the best response I could.
When rumors are passed along from person to person, it is said to be spread. If there are rumors of a new principal therefore, the most likely word to fill the space would have to be "spread" which would show that the rumors of a new principal are being passed around the school.
In the poem it says " the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain thrilled me-filled me with fantastic terrors never felt" it is saying the curtains frightened him. that just what i think but it has been a while sense i read that poem so<span />
