Allegedly recovered from the legendary King Solomon’s Mines, the uncut, rough tone was acquired in 1544 by the scandalous De Luc

a family. Gifted as part of a dowry in 1612, the fate of the diamond, along with several other high profile gems, were
unknown after the Franco-Spanish war of 1635, before it mysteriously reappeared over three centuries later.

Sold last year to the Moretti Brothers jewellers for just over £22 million, neither time
nor conflict have dimmed its brilliance. Indeed, the twin eighty-year-old brothers suggest that the value of the now cut and polished 90 carat diamond has already increased by at least 50%. It will be on display for four weeks only.

Based on the context of each excerpt from F. Scott Fitzgerald's "Winter Dreams," choose the definition that most closely matches
brilliants [131]

Emphasize - Accentuated: As she took her stance for a short mashie shot, Dexter looked at her closely. She wore a blue gingham dress, rimmed at throat and shoulders with a white edging that accentuated her tan.

In this passage it is saying that the white edging of the dress made the darkness of her skin stand out. Emphasize means the same as stand out of accentuate.

Childish sulkiness or bad-temper - petulance: During dinner she slipped into a moody depression which gave Dexter a feeling of uneasiness. Whatever petulance she uttered in her throaty voice worried him.

She is described as being in a moody depression. This best fits with the definition of sulkiness or bad-temper.

Practical, Ordinary - mundane: "You're not. I like you. But I've just had a terrible afternoon. There was a man I cared about, and this afternoon he told me out of a clear sky that he was poor as a church-mouse. He'd never even hinted it before. Does this sound horribly mundane?"

Another word for mundane is ordinary. Mundane is used to give ordinary a more boring connotation.

Write a short paragraph explaining the principle of “don’t say or do anything online that you wouldn’t say or do face to face.”
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer: If you wouldn't say it to there face don't say it online.

Explanation: When you say something to someone in person you are most likely to not say anything rude or be overly opinionated, you might fight or argue but when online people tend to say nasty stuff. For example let's say someone looks bad, in person you would probably just ignore it but online a person would say you look bad or clean yourself up. That would make someone feel bad about themself, or they would believe you. If you ignored it online they would feel better that your not beating them up for it. The concept is to only say online what you would say in person.
