2. Perpetrate

Explanation

The word "perpetrate" means to commit or carry out a particular action, especially a crime. In this context, "perpetrate a crime" means to commit or be responsible for the commission of a criminal act. The other options, "perpetrate fruit" and "perpetrate a profit," do not make sense and are not commonly used phrases.

Submit
3. Impact

Explanation

The correct answer is "The striking of something against another." This is because the definition of impact refers to the collision or forceful contact between two objects. It implies a significant effect or influence resulting from this collision. The other options, flying in the air with a bird and a piece of glass, do not accurately describe the concept of impact.

Submit
4. Aftermath

Explanation

The word "aftermath" refers to the time period that follows a horrific event. It is the period of time when the effects and consequences of the event are still being felt or dealt with. This word implies that there is a sense of destruction, loss, or damage caused by the event, which can sap the energy or emotional well-being of those affected. Therefore, the given answer accurately captures the meaning of "aftermath" as it relates to the time following a horrific event.

Submit
5. Decipher

Explanation

The correct answer is "ILLegible matter" because decipher means to convert something that is difficult to understand or interpret into understandable language. In this case, "ILLegible matter" refers to something that is not readable or clear, which aligns with the meaning of decipher. The other options, such as "Eating cheese" and "Producing a prophit," do not relate to the concept of deciphering.

Submit
6. Fruitful
Synonym: Fertile

Explanation

The correct answer is "Producing fruit" because the word "fruitful" is used to describe something that is productive or fruitful in terms of producing fruit. It is synonymous with "fertile" which also means capable of producing abundant growth or offspring. Therefore, the most appropriate explanation for the given word "fruitful" is "Producing fruit".

8. Perforate

Explanation

The word "perforate" means to pierce or punch through something. It is often used to describe the action of creating small holes or punctures in a material. The other option, "characterized by stealth," does not fit the definition of "perforate" and is therefore incorrect. Similarly, "in abundance" is also unrelated to the meaning of "perforate." Therefore, the correct answer is "pierce, punch."

Submit
9. Furtive
Synonym: Clandestine

Explanation

The word "furtive" means attempting to avoid notice or attention, typically because of guilt or a belief that discovery would lead to trouble. The word "clandestine" has a similar meaning, referring to something done secretly or in a concealed manner. Therefore, the correct answer "secret" aligns with the synonym relationship between "furtive" and "clandestine."

Submit
10. Shard

Explanation

The word "shard" is defined as a small piece or part. The other options, "Immediate impression" and "Going online," do not accurately describe the meaning of the word. Therefore, the correct answer is "A small piece or part."

Submit
11. Lucrative

Explanation

The word "lucrative" means something that is profitable or capable of producing wealth. The other options - smelling mustard and the power of making strong - do not convey the same meaning as "lucrative." Therefore, the correct answer is "producing wealth."

Submit
12. Fertile
Synonym: Fruitful

Explanation

The correct answer is "Producing crops abundantly." This is because the word "fertile" refers to the ability to produce crops or plants in abundance. It implies a high level of productivity and abundance in terms of agricultural output. Therefore, the synonym "fruitful" accurately captures the meaning of "fertile" in the context of producing crops abundantly.

Submit
13. Bore

Explanation

The word "bore" can have multiple meanings, but in this context, it is used to mean "to make a hole through." This definition fits with the other options provided, such as "solve" and "totally annoying," which do not relate to the concept of making a hole through something. Therefore, the correct answer is "to make a hole through."

Submit
14. Defile

Explanation

The correct answer is "To make dirty or march in a line." The word "defile" can be used to describe the act of making something dirty or polluted. It can also refer to the action of marching or moving in a single file, especially in a ceremonial or formal manner.
