Question on image!!!!!

OpenStudy (irrati0nal):

Can you post the image?

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

i think it B

OpenStudy (irrati0nal):

Well, we have to look at the definitions of each word too see if they make sense with the sentence. Sentence B actually uses "deemed" correctly.

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

ok than what is it?

OpenStudy (irrati0nal):

You question asks for the word used incorrectly. So we need to find a word that doesn't make sense with the sentence.

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

ok

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

I think it A or C maybe D

OpenStudy (irrati0nal):

So the first sentence uses the word "dismal," which means dreary or depressing. Does that make sense with the sentence?

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

no

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

it does not make sense

OpenStudy (irrati0nal):

So that is what your question is looking for. And just to clarify the others: "beseech" means to ask urgently. and "sympathize" means to agree with a sentiment or opinion. Both of those other words make sense with the sentences they're paired with.

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

so it A

OpenStudy (irrati0nal):

That's right. You understand why though right?

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

YES

OpenStudy (irrati0nal):

Cool. Let me know if you need help with anything else.

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

yes

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

i need help with other thin

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

thing

OpenStudy (irrati0nal):

Aight, just post it in a separate question.
