The TWO (2) correct answer choices are:
____________________________________
[A]: "similar" ; <u>AND</u>:
_____________________________________
[D]: "equal" .
________<u>_____________________________</u>
<u>Note:</u>
Refer to the following sentence in the [given paragraph] that uses the word, "similar" :
_____________________________________
"... <span>Similar to golf, the object is to navigate a course in the least amount of strokes. ..." ;
_____________________________________
Also, refer to the following sentence in the [given paragraph] that uses the word, "equal" :
_____________________________________
"... </span><span>Where courses were once rare, disc golf has become a popular pastime equal to the popularity of Ultimate, also a flying disc-based sport. ..." .
_____________________________________
Note the other answer choices given:
_____________________________________
[B]: "determine" ; a verb that is not related to the word, "equivalent" .
_____________________________________
[C]: "pasttime" ; (NOTE: The correct spelling is, in fact, "pasttime"); which is a noun that roughly means "hobbie" or "activity of interest") has nothing to do with the word, "equivalent".
____________________________________
The question asks, "</span><span>Which TWO WORDS from the paragraph help the reader understand the meaning of equivalent?"
This leaves us with the remaining answer choices:
____________________________________
[A]: "similar" ; and:
[D]: "equal" — both of which are related to the word, "equivalent"; and both of which help the reader understand the meaning of the word, "equivalent" .

By the use of the word formal, people tend to think of respectful/professional words/things. The words shady character and snake in the grass are more of a casual/informal way of describing a "suspicious" person.
