Answer:

The answer is indeed number 2. was buried.

Explanation:

To extract means to remove, to take out, to pull out, especially by effort or force. But even if readers don't know the meaning of extract, they can assume it is related to removing something by paying attention to context clues. In this case, if someone has a splinter "buried deep" in their finger, it is only logical that it will cause them pain and they will want it removed. Thus, the context clue for the definition of the word extract is "was buried".

I think it is just as important to know what you don't know as it is to know what you know. That way, you can direct people to those who know or to references. </span>

Answer:

A. conforming to social conventions

B. criticism of a middle class lifestyle

E. the necessity of companionship

Explanation:

The first alternative is supported by the first part of the passage in which Tolstoy describes all the reasons why Fedorovna seems to be a good match for Ilyich in the eyes of the society and Ivan Ilyitch himself.

The second alternative is an overall conclusion that can be derived from the fact that the passage describes marriage more like a business deal than a derivation of love.

The third alternative is revealed to us by the fact that Ivan Ilyitch knew himself that Fedorovna is not her best match, but decided to still marry her, because he needed to have a partner.
