Answer:
Payment before publication of a book.
Explanation:
From the given passage, it is evident that the speaker is talking about how he was relieved and happy to have finally got his book accepted. Moreover, he also revealed that he had been given an advanced payment for that same manuscript.
In this regard, the word "advance" refers to the advanced payment given to him before the publication of the book. An advance is something that is given before the actual execution of the deal or agreement between the parties, in this case, the publication of the book.
Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
Do you have a paragraph reference I could read?

Answer:
The detail that uses sensory words to describe Akela is:
C. out at full length on his rock.
Explanation:
Sensory words are words or phrases that appeal to one of more of our five senses: sight, smell, taste, touch, and hearing. Having that in mind, we can use elimination to answer this question:
A. a hilltop covered with stones and boulders - may appeal to sight, but does not refer to Akela. This option is incorrect.
B. who led all the Pack by strength and cunning - does refer to Akela, but does not appeal to any of the five senses. The words "strength" and "cunning" demand a different kind of interpretation from readers. This option is incorrect.
C. out at full length on his rock - this is the correct option. We can imagine Akela lying down on the rock; we can even see the position of his body because of this description. Imagine your dog or cat, for instance, lying down on the floor, with his/her belly's whole extension touching the floor.
D. from badger-coloured veterans - again, does appeal to the senses, but does not refer to Akela. This option is incorrect.
