Choose the word most similar in meaning to - sodden

English
1 answer:
sleet_krkn [62]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

1. saturated

2. adapt

3. volatility...mercurial

Explanation:

1. Sodden is a term used to denote that something is completely soaked, oversaturated with water (for example: carpet, clothes, backyard after massive rains, socks etc.) From that, we could infere that "saturated" has the closest meaning to "sodden".

2. From the context of the sentence, we can conclude that businesses need to properly answer to the change of economic circumstances. That basically means that they need to adjust, to adapt to the new situation.

3. Again, we use the context of the sentence to determine the right answer. Basically, the sentence is about a man whose mood changes reflected on the changes of his stock portfolio. So, we need to find the pair of words that denotes changes and inconsistencies, and the only adequate pair is "volatility...mercurial".

The cost of bagels has gone up dramatically since the beginning of the year. Unfortunately, the number of bagels that disappear
Mashutka [201]

This question is missing the previous part of the excerpt and the answer options. I have found the complete question online. The part that you already posted will be omitted, replaced with . . .

Read the following excerpt from Levitt and Dubner's "Freakonomics":

In the real world, Feldman learned to settle for less than 95 percent. He came to consider a company as "honest" if its payment rate was above 90 percent. He considered a rate between 80 and 90 percent "annoying but tolerable." If a company habitually paid below 80 percent, Feldman might post a hectoring note, like this one:

. . .

A. a claim

B. an example

C. a conclusion

D. a counterclaim

Answer:

The excerpt serves a:

B. an example

Explanation:

The excerpt in the question serves as an example for the passage posted above.

Feldman is a man who leaves baskets with bagels at companies for people to take them and pay for them. He does not stay at the company, however, to make sure people will pay. He would rather trust their honesty. But, if people begin to take the bagels without paying to the point where Feldman only makes between 80 to 90 percent of the money he should make, he leaves them a note.

When the authors talk about Feldman's note, the phrase "like this one" shows that the excerpt is an example of a type of note Feldman might use to increase payment by appealing to people's honesty.

pls help hurry because i only have 3 min left. what passage tells you about drones job what other information does the graph giv
Vesna [10]

Answer:

The answer would be 'Drones are most often used for photography.'

Explanation:

The passage really has no significance to the graph. Looking at the graph, the question, and answers, the answer should be a little clearer to see.

-The graph shows different jobs.

-The graph shows how often the drones are used for that job.

-The graph does not state whether this is in the past or the future.

With that information, we can rule out some of the answers. The graph does not state whether it is in the past, or future, nor can we compare. In order to compare, we would need more information, or another graph.

The graph only shows how often the drones are used, not how many people are replaced with drones.

The graph is not specific, so we don't know if the drone is filming hurricanes or not.

The graph does show that there are more drones used in photography than the rest.

I hope that helped!
