All are right except for the last one.
You're getting tired. Only the first of these last four is correct.
I think you've left something out of the third one.
To answer the question correctly, we can use context clues to determine the correct word from the given word bank options.
In this case, the sentence mentions "Tom," who is in pain and his leg is being treated by a doctor. The word that fits the context is "writhe," which means to twist and turn in pain or discomfort.
So, the correct answer is:
Tom writhed with pain as the doctor put splints on his broken leg.
Next, let's move on to the second question:
The sentence mentions a specific pass that allows access to certain rooms in a museum that are not open to the general public. The word that fits the context is "authorize," which means to give official permission or approval.
So, the correct answer is:
This pass authorizes you to visit certain rooms in this museum that are not open to the general public.
Finally, let's answer the last question:
The sentence describes a story about a homeless child that deeply moved everyone to tears. The word that fits the context is "pathetic," which means causing or evoking pity, sympathy, or compassion.
So, the correct answer is:
The story of the homeless child was so pathetic that it moved us all to tears.
