Question

A student is revising the sentence below: Away from her friends and familiar surroundings, Melissa felt marooned at her new school. What is another word for marooned in the context of this sentence? Reckless: unconcerned, without caution Hidden: kept from being seen Isolated: alone and without help Remote: out of the way or secluded

Answer 1

I would say remote. Since she is at a new school she probably has no friends and feels secluded, or alone. The new surroundings and people feel like she doesn't belong or feel there.
