Which word could best be used in place of the word dock in this sentence?
The sailor pulled his boat up to the dock and tied it to the post before getting off.
A. barb
B. vagabond
C. quay
D. clamor
Answer: C. quay
Explanation: A vagabond is a person who wanders from place to place, a clamor is a loud noise, and a barb is a sharp projection. Therefore "quay", would be the best fit, because it is a platform projecting into the water. So, "The sailor pulled his boat up to the quay and tied it to the post before getting off." Hope this helps ^-^.
Question # 1. The following question has two parts. First, answer part A. Then, answer part B.
Question # 1, Part A
What is most likely the author's intent by mentioning the “Rodeo Drive shopping spree” in the following paragraph?
When my parents said the three of us were moving out to California, to a place just north of Los Angeles, my mind immediately went to thoughts of Disneyland and Hollywood, glitz and glamour. I imagined a Rodeo Drive shopping spree to pick out a bikini for the endless days I would be spending on the beach. However, I’d forgotten about my parents’ penchant for the unconventional; they’re definitely “the road less traveled” kind of people. Mom had a gopher snake for a pet when she was younger, and Dad was never happier than when he was climbing near-vertical cliffs that only mountain goats could love. These are not city folk.
Question 1 options:
To show that the narrator comes from a family that is used to spending money.
To reveal the narrator as someone who is shallow and cares only for nice things.
To contrast the narrator's grand dreams with the sparse life her parents have in mind.
To emphasize the narrator's nervousness about moving to a place so far removed from civilization.
Question # 2, Part B
Which sentence from the text best supports your answer in part A?
Question 2 options:
“On the stone staircase that led to the front door, black lizards interrupted their push-ups to twist their heads and eye us as we passed.”
“Our new home consisted of one bedroom, one bathroom, and one big room for everything else.”
“Dad told me the real estate agent had mentioned that coyotes, bobcats, mountain lions, rattlesnakes, and even bears roamed these hills.”
“In the city, or even in the suburbs where I had lived before, you could see only the brightest stars in the sky.”
Answer:
#1. To contrast the narrator's grand dreams with the sparse life her parents have in mind.
#2.“Our new home consisted of one bedroom, one bathroom, and one big room for everything else.”

Incomplete question. The remaining part of the question is attached below.
Answer:
2. The repetition creates an astonished tone that highlights the inventiveness of Newton's theory.
Explanation:

French was merged with Old English by the _____.
Danes
Normans
Saxons
Answer:
Normans.
Explanation:
Old English was a language almost entirely Germanic, including the language spoken by the old Vikings who spoke Old Norse. Moreover, the spelling of old English is almost purely phonetic, consisting of a simple two tense, and a verb system of three singular and one plural form.
But with the Norman conquest, they intermarried with the English, resulting in a mixture of the languages spoken by the Norman Danes and the English. This resulted in the merging of the Old English with the Norman's Old French.
Thus, the correct answer is Normans.
