In the following sentence, which word is the adjective? D.dimming
Answer:
B. “the charges were laughable” (Paragraph 20)
Explanation:
Thes question refers to the article "A Child Of Slavery Who Thought A Generation" which tells the story of Anna Cooper.
She was, amongst other things, a principal and a teacher in first public high school for black students. Her work was amazing and very inspirational, which obviously bothered some people which led to a scandal ginned up against her.
The word "ginned up" means that something was started, agitated, increased or generated in a dubious manner and with dishonest purpose. This means that accusations were made only to throw dirt on her, without any factual evidence.
The sentence that best supports this is "the charges were laughable".
Although many prominent people stood in her defence, Cooper had to resign her principal's post due to the scandal and public pressure.

Here is a "paragraph" about what bullying/cyberbullying is to me:
The dictionary says bullying/cyberbullying is "insulting with threats; imperious; overbearing; blustering: as, a bullying manner." but it's not really. Bullying/cyberbullying is in my opinion, a way that someone gains "power" from making other people feel unneeded, unwanted, useless, powerless, and useable to bully again. Bullying/cyberbullying is an outlet for people who don't exactly have their perfect life and make themselves happier.
