Answer:
Reldresal cannot believe that someone like Gulliver could live in the same world as him, giving no chance to other realities.
Explanation:
Reldresal is a character from Gulliver's Travels, a book by Irish writer Jonathan Swift. He is known by his satirical works. Satire is defined as the use of irony or sarcasm to criticize people's vices in a political context.
Gulliver's Travels narrates the man character's trips to different places, such as Lilliput and Blefuscu, which were two rival islands. Reldresal is Gulliver's friend in Lilliput, and he is the principal secretary for private affairs.
In this case, the quote in the question satirizes small-mindedness since the secretary cannot believe that something bigger than the reality he knew could be happening in the same world. He even says that a hundred mortals like Gulliver would destroy Lilliput in a short time; meaning that they could destroy everything very fast. This way, Reldresal shows that he doesn't give a chance to different realities.

Answer:
The correct answer is: NO CHANGE.
Explanation:
Between March and November of 2011, an anonymous donor left <u>intricately </u>crafted paper sculptures at various cultural institutions in Edinburgh, Scotland.
In the first passage, the underlined word is <em>intricately</em>. Offered choices are 1. no change, 2. impressively, 3. terrifically, and 4. superbly. As none of these words can substitute the word <em>intricately</em>, the correct answer will be no change.
Impressively means in an impressive manner; imposingly.
Terrifically means great and intense; or which causes extreme terror.
Superbly means excellently, wonderfully, marvelously, splendidly.
Intricately means finely detailed, often in a careful but complicated way.
Therefore, the correct answer will be no change.
