You can use the clues "It only gets worse" and "the purpose of holidays" to infer the definition of the word. 

Also, the prefix "de" means "do the opposite of", and "construct" means, to put something together, or build it up. 

So you can infer that "deconstruct" means to take apart or break. 



Hope this wasn't too confusing, comment the correct answer.

Answer:

Outreach

Explanation:

The three options provided are types of people i.e "children", "elderly", and "homeless". So, the fourth element too should be a type of people. Hence, "Finances", and "Conservation" are eliminated.

Out of "Students" and "Outreach", "outreach" would be better option;

Firstly because, children (age), elderly (age) homeless (location), and then fourth too should be about location i.e. "Outreach"

Secondly, because "students" is a sort of occupation, children may also be students. So, "Students" does not fit well with the three provided options.

After putting Madeline in the vault, Usher’s madness begins to increase. Why does he get so much worse?
Svetradugi [14.3K]
Usher's madness begins to increase because he can hear the sound of Madeline below.
Even though his sister is buried in the basement, he can constantly hear her scratching her coffin. He was tortured by these sounds until the protagonist came to visit him so he could share his troubles with him. Usher is afraid of his 'undead' sister and of dying himself, which is why he grows crazier and crazier by the day, until he is finally killed by his own sister in the end.
