    Correct Answer
    B. Worried
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Worried" because it is the only option that describes the parent's emotional state. The word "waited" simply indicates an action, while "parent" is a noun and "none of these" does not provide any relevant information. Therefore, "Worried" is the most suitable choice to describe the parent's state of mind.

    A. Hot
    Explanation
    The word "hot" is the correct answer because it is the only word that describes the temperature of the volcano. The word "erupted" describes the action of the volcano, and "volcano" is the subject of the sentence. "None of these" does not provide any relevant information.
