Answer:

The correct answer to this question is that none of these pairs are considered homonyms; they are known grammatically as homophones, and these terms tend to be confused because the two terms have the same prefixes, but in truth they are different.

Homonyms are literally words that are spelled identically, and have the same sounds, but their definition is different. An example of this is the word "check". This one word, spelled exactly the same, and with the same sound, has many different definitions and uses. Thus, it is a homonym.

Homophones, which are the case of these choice pairs, are words whose sound is the same, but they are spelled differently and their meaning is different. If we are talking about homophones, then, the correct pairs that would be homophones, these would be: concern;discern, mode;lode and way;weight. They all home similar sounds, but their spelling and meaning are different.

This question is about "Safety in Numbers" by Lucy Tan
avanturin [10]

Answer:

A The narrator thinks less of her mother because she is too rigid and does not take risks.

Explanation:

In "Safety in Numbers" we are presented the mother of the narrator who is a Chinese woman established in America and extremely strict with her daughter's studies, besides being an extremely cautious person and committed to not taking any risks.

The narrator thinks that the life that her mother stipulated and that imposes on all family members is a mediocre life, especially when she discovers that her mother was a great activist who fought against the Chinese government and took a great risk of life. .

In short, the narrator believes that her mother's life has become small because she is very strict and is not at risk.

Lisa [10]
<span>I predict that Paul will ride for Mr. Sutcliffe, but he will get hurt because the horse is a strange horse. Paul is very angry at his father right now, so he might intentionally disobey his father because he is upset. He is likely to get injured because Paul's father is often right. He has a lot of faith in Paul's abilities, so if he thinks riding this strange horse is too risky for Paul, it probably is.</span>
