Question

What is the meaning of the word grim in this sentence?

Answer 1

Confused answer correct

Answer 2

A) Stern

In the context of the question, confused and appreciative don't work. If we try to fit worried in, we see it also does not work as it does not match with disapproving. We can tell that the father is upset, so Stern works best. Trying to substitute the new word into the passage can help give us a better understand of what we are looking for.

I hope I've helped! :)
