I'd love to help you, but first, can you tell me which word is italicized? (:

Answer 2

does not say

Answer 3

Oh okay, I'm guessing the italicized word is "querulous".

So, with the context clues being "waiting", "hour", and "grow", which word from your choices fits best?

Answer 4

Tip: substitute the word "querulous" with each of your choices, then decide which sounds correct.

Answer 5

i have no clue i never learned this

Answer 6

Okay, I'll try to walk you through it. (:

Answer 7

okay thx

Answer 8

Okay, so at the end of the sentence, do you see the word "querulous"?

Answer 9

yes

Answer 10

Awesome, so in order to figure out the best definition of "querulous", you will need to replace it with each of your word choices.
Those are:

A.excited

B.anticipatory

C.impatient

D.short-sighted

E.narrow-minded

F.participatory

Answer 11

An example is this:
After waiting for a table for over an hour, I started to grow very excited. (using choice A.)

Answer 12

It doesn't sound right to use "excited", does it?

Answer 13

nope lol

Answer 14

Would "anticipatory" make it sound any better?

Answer 15

ya

Answer 16

It does? How?

Answer 17

idk ill guess on it but thx for the help

Answer 18

No, no.

Answer 19

We're almost there.

Answer 20

Think for a moment...
If you were at a restaurant, and were stuck waiting for "over an hour" to be seated at a table, you would become very impatient, correct?

Answer 21

i got espanola valley high school and thats the worst school ever thats why i idk what your saying

Answer 22

Oh, I'm sorry. :/
What I'm saying is that the correct option is choice C, because it fits the correct definition of "querulous".

Answer 23

okay thx and were lreaning like 7grade 8 grade stuff in high school

Answer 24
