The word downtrodden in this sentence from section 2 means

English
1 answer:
lorasvet [3.4K]3 years ago
5 0

unfortunate and miserable

 

The best response is the first reply because downtrodden means trampled upon, crushed, depressed.  One way you can help yourself in the future when looking to determine the meaning of a word is to try to replace it with synonyms.  That said, if you replace “downtrodden” with “depressed” or “sad,” the sentence still makes perfect sense.  However, what if you don’t know synonyms?  In that case, try to look at the parts of the word.  For instance, the prefix of “downtrodden” is “down.”  That said, “down” is typically a word associated with “sad.”  Thus, one could make the connection that “downtrodden” is synonymous with “unfortunate” and/or “miserable.”

Which excerpt best describes the way growing up in poverty affected Lizabeth?
Kisachek [45]

The excerpt that best describes the way growing up in poverty affected Lizabeth is

  • A) “perhaps we had some dim notion of what we were, and how little chance we had of been anything else. Otherwise, why would we be so preoccupied with destruction?”

The excerpt above reveals how poverty negatively affected the children.

Even though they were vaguely aware of the depth of poverty they found themselves in, their preoccupation with destruction shows that poverty had made them expect little from life.

When a person sees no future before him, destruction might be the next resort. That was what happened to Lizabeth.
