The correct meaning of the word "forte" is, a person's strong suit.

Answer: Option B.

Explanation:

The line ‘Literary criticism is not your forte, my dear fellow. Don't try it. You should leave that to [other] people’ is a part of the play ‘The Importance of Being Earnest’ written by Oscar Wild. When the speaker says, ‘Literary criticism is not your forte’ he means that you’re not good at criticizing, so just don't try it. Forte refers to a person’s strong suit or characteristics at which he/she is good at. In simple words, forte means a skill or talent of a person.

When they reached out the opulent port the Sailors saw
Elden [556K]

Answer:

Hey! You probably came from the worksheet that asks you to complete the sentence in a way that shows you understand the italicized word. The word that was italicized in this sentence was <em>opulent</em> so I'll tell you what it means to help you out! Opulent's definition is 'rich, luxurious and lavish'. That kind of thing. So you can finish the sentence by describing the port's expensive items and how it was clearly for rich people by the way it was decorated with jewels, gold, etc. I hope this helped you in some way or another :)

McCandless rejected the idea of authority, but he did not accept any advice and attempt to prevent that decision, behaving in an authoritarian manner and assuming the behavior that he rejected.
