Use the tips from this lesson to help you determine which selection most closely matches the definition of precedent in the foll
owing sentence. Julie was shocked when she received detention for talking in class because the school had no precedent for disciplining talkative students.
Based on how the word "precedent" is used in the given sentence above, I can say that the word that most closely matches the definition of this word is "<span>model, example, or tradition". The word "precedent" here is a noun. The answer would be the first option.</span>
Definitely 1 and 4 because it talks about the highway man and the landlords daughter and also describes a setting of outdoors next to trees and a road. I'd have to go with 1, 4, and 2.
