B)threatened.


C)gathered.


D)enlarged.

(the paragraph)
Sofia felt much obliged for their help. When she turned to leave, she felt as though the shop had become much brighter, as if a dark cloud had suddenly dissipated.

Answer:

Its answer is option A

Vanished

The author uses the term "dissipated" which means vanished. Therefore, option A is correct.

The word "dissipated" has several meanings, but the most common one is to disperse or scatter in different directions or to disappear gradually over time. It can also mean squandering or wasting something, such as money or energy, by using it in a frivolous or unproductive way.

Additionally, it can refer to a person who behaves recklessly or irresponsibly, such as someone who drinks excessively or engages in other forms of self-destructive behavior.

This sense of "dissipated" is similar to the first, but refers specifically to something gradually disappearing rather than being spread out. The author uses the term "dissipated" which indicates vanished. Therefore, option A is correct.

In 1910, just before Marie Curie collected her second Nobel Prize for radioactivity, young György Hevesy arrived in England to study radioactivity himself. His university’s lab director in Manchester, Ernest Rutherford, immediately assigned Hevesy the Herculean task of separating out radioactive atoms from nonradioactive atoms inside blocks of lead. Actually, it turned out to be not Herculean but impossible. Rutherford had assumed the radioactive atoms, known as radium-D, were a unique substance. In fact, radium-D was radioactive lead and therefore could not be separated chemically. Ignorant of this, Hevesy wasted two years tediously trying to tease lead and radium-D apart before giving up.

Hevesy—a bald, droopy-cheeked, mustached aristocrat from Hungary—also faced domestic frustrations. Hevesy was far from home and used to savory Hungarian food, not the English cooking at his boardinghouse. After noticing patterns in the meals served there, Hevesy grew suspicious that, like a high school cafeteria recycling Monday’s hamburgers into Thursday’s beef chili, his landlady’s “fresh” daily meat was anything but. When confronted, she denied this, so Hevesy decided to seek proof.

Miraculously, he’d achieved a breakthrough in the lab around that time. He still couldn’t separate radium-D, but he realized he could flip that to his advantage. He’d begun musing over the possibility of injecting minute quantities of dissolved lead into a living creature and then tracing the element’s path, since the creature would metabolize the radioactive and nonradioactive lead the same way, and the radium-D would emit beacons of radioactivity as it moved. If this worked, he could actually track molecules inside veins and organs, an unprecedented degree of resolution.

Before he tried this on a living being, Hevesy decided to test his idea on the tissue of a nonliving being, a test with an ulterior motive. He took too much meat at dinner one night and, when the landlady’s back was turned, sprinkled “hot” lead over it. She gathered his leftovers as normal, and the next day Hevesy brought home a newfangled radiation detector from his lab buddy, Hans Geiger. Sure enough, when he waved it over that night’s goulash, Geiger’s counter went furious: click-click-click-click. Hevesy confronted his landlady with the evidence. But, being a scientific romantic, Hevesy no doubt laid it on thick as he explained the mysteries of radioactivity. In fact, the landlady was so charmed to be caught so cleverly, with the latest tools of forensic science, she didn’t even get mad. There’s no historical record of whether she altered her menu, however.

Read the excerpt from “Harriet Tubman: A Life of Toil and Triumph.”

After Harriet journeyed to the safety of Philadelphia, she met with members of the Anti-Slavery Society. She wanted to learn more about the special railroad that had helped her become free, and then she wanted to help. Without taking any time to enjoy her newfound freedom, she signed on as a conductor. Soon she was headed back to Maryland to guide others safely north.

Then in 1850, the United States passed the Fugitive Slave Act. This forced citizens of the Northern states to return escaped enslaved persons to the South. Remarkably, Harriet did not become discouraged. Instead, she conducted her passengers all the way to Canada—a trip of an extra three hundred miles! In all, she made that trip nineteen times, freeing her family and three hundred additional enslaved persons in the process.

What inference can be made about Harriet Tubman’s character?

She was tireless in bringing others to freedom.
She felt entitled to freedom and an easy life.
She was too busy to enjoy her new freedom.
She worked as a conductor to free her family.

important to us!"
Later, Hadria did indeed find herself crawling through a cave, but when

dragon twice the size of a bull lay on top of its hoard. Hadria readied a
spell and strode into the monster's den.
