    Correct Answer

    • Bellowing

    • Mission

    Correct Answer
    A. Mission
    Explanation
    The word "Mission" makes the most sense in the given context because it fits grammatically and creates a coherent image. The phrase "There she stood in the doorway" suggests that someone is standing in a doorway, and the phrase "I heard the mission bell" implies that the person standing in the doorway can hear a bell associated with a mission. This creates a vivid scene and suggests that the person may be in a religious or historical setting.

    • Limelight

    • Cornfields

    Explanation
    The given lyrics describe a situation where the person has a lot of attractive male friends. The line suggests that these friends are dancing in a place where there is sweet summer sweat.

    "And in the master's _____________, they gathered for the feast." - ProProfs

    "And in the master's _____________, they gathered for the feast."

    • Chambers

    • Hollows

    • Boudoir

    • Bedroom

    Correct Answer
    A. Chambers
    Explanation
    The word "master's" suggests that the sentence is referring to a large, grand residence or mansion. "Chambers" is the most appropriate choice as it is commonly used to describe rooms within such a residence. "Hollows" refers to empty spaces or cavities, which does not fit the context of a feast. "Boudoir" typically refers to a woman's private bedroom or sitting area, which may not be suitable for a gathering. "Bedroom" is a more general term and does not convey the grandeur implied by the word "master's."

    • Dull

    • Dim

    • Faint

    • Dark

    Correct Answer
    A. Dim
    Explanation
    In this sentence, the speaker describes seeing a shimmering light in the distance. The phrase "my head grew heavy and my sight grew" suggests that the speaker's vision became affected by the light. The word "dim" fits this context because it means to become less bright or clear. Therefore, it can be inferred that the speaker's sight became less clear or less bright as they approached the shimmering light.
