tell which letter is a correct answer to the questions. a question may have more than one right answer.

Which of the following can be inflamed?
a. a wound
b. a menu
c. an interrogation
d. a congregation
(I know for sure an answer is 'a' but I'm wondering if c and/or d is an answer as well)

Which of the following might act in a servile manner?
a. a sage
b. a dignitary
c. a patriarch
d. a slave
(I know letter 'd' is an answer but I was wondering if 'a' could also be an answer.)

For the first one, a and d for sure -- and maybe c, depending on context.

For the second one, the only answer is d. Do you know what a sage is?

for the first question i believe the answer to be both 'c' and 'd'

i agree with Writeacher on the second question. the answer is 'd'

Yes, it means a person known for wisdom and good judgment. Since servile means like a slave; excessively humble, I thought a sage could be humble.

On the first one, I think that it may not be c because an actual interrogation cannot be excited or angered, can it?

in a way an interrogation can be heated. emotionally and physically that is.

Okay, I think I understand. I have one more question, of the same type of the previous two.

Which of the following is an overt action?
a. digesting dinner
b. keeping a secret
c. ordering dinner
d. handing out tracts
(I know the answer is d, but I was also wondering if c would work, too)

An overt action is one that can be seen by others. So yes, c and d can be the answers.

'C' can work too. both 'c' and 'd' can be seen openly. not 'a' and 'b'

To determine the correct answers to these questions, we can analyze the options given and consider their meanings. Let's break it down:

Question 1: Which of the following can be inflamed?
a. a wound
b. a menu
c. an interrogation
d. a congregation

The correct answer is 'a' - a wound. Inflammation refers to a localized physical condition involving redness, swelling, heat, and pain. Wounds commonly get inflamed.

Regarding options 'c' and 'd', an interrogation and a congregation cannot be directly inflamed. These choices are unlikely to be correct.

Question 2: Which of the following might act in a servile manner?
a. a sage
b. a dignitary
c. a patriarch
d. a slave

The correct answer is 'd' - a slave. Being servile means behaving submissive or obediently, often in a subordinate role. Slaves historically had to act in a servile manner towards their masters.

Option 'a', a sage, is typically not associated with servility. Sages are known for their wisdom and independent thinking. Therefore, 'a' is less likely to be a correct answer.

In summary:
Question 1: The correct answer is 'a' (a wound). Options 'c' and 'd' are not correct.
Question 2: The correct answer is 'd' (a slave). Option 'a' is less likely to be correct.
