It offers excerpted examples of the words in literature.
Explanation:
<em>Samuel Johnson's </em>"A Dictionary of the English Language" was regarded as the best dictionary of its day. It was published in 1755, thus this makes the first choice (It was published in the late 1800s) incorrect.
I<u>t has around 42,773 words with their meanings</u>, thus this makes the second choice (It includes over forty thousand definitions) correct. The dictionary which "only" contained 40,000 words was prepared by <em>Nathan Bailey.</em>
The dictionary only shows the<u> meaning of the words and "not their origin."</u> Thus, this makes the third choice (It includes information about word origin) incorrect.
The meaning of the words are illustrated with the help of quotations (excerpts) relating to literature. So, this makes the last choice (It offers excerpted examples of the words in literature) correct. Examples of the quotations comes from Shakespeare, Dryden and Milton.
However, the dictionary doesn't have a preface written by William Shakespeare. Thus, this makes the fourth choice (It has a preface written by William Shakespeare) incorrect.
