Answer: Choice #2 (<em>He peered at me from the other side of the room.)</em>
Explanation:
The four verbs are <em>looked</em>, <em>peered</em>, <em>sat</em>, and <em>was </em>for sentences 1-4 respectively.
Out of those four verbs, <em>sat </em>and <em>was </em>are extremely basic, common, and uninteresting verbs.
<em>Peered </em>is a more powerful synonym to <em>looked, </em>thus making it the vivid verb.

Answer:
"Boredom was a terror almost as awful as the work itself."
Explanation:
This is the metaphor that Gary Soto uses in the text "One Last Time. " In this text, Soto describes both boredom and work as awful "terrors." This shows that Soto finds it difficult and disheartening to engage in either of these activities, as he does not enjoy work or rest. The image conveys the idea that Soto has lost all drive and motivation. This metaphor contributes to creating a tone of sadness and desperation.
Is this like a multiple choice question or... I don't get this question.
