Answer:

D: brother admitted to it

Explanation:

 The meaning of the word vindicate is <em>to prove that what someone said or</em> <em>did was right or true, after other people thought is was wrong </em>; the same as absolved; free from blame, etc. The fact that her brother admitted that he was responsible for the mess in the kitchen means that <em>she is clear, not guilty, and it is a proof that she was telling the truth.</em>

The word vindicated, which comes from the Latin word vindicatus, originally meant "to avenge or revenge" but its meaning soon shifted to "clear from censure or doubt, by means of demonstration." When you are vindicated, your name is cleared. You might also prove that you're right about something.

kiruha [24]

Answer:

Unreliable

Explanation:

An unreliable narrator is the narrator of a story whose point of view is compromised, and thus the way the individual describes events unfolding in the story, cannot be trusted as an honest account of what is actually happening. It is a form of first-person narrative style. The unreliability of the narrator can be attributed to their age, their mental instability, or the fact that the narrator might be the culprit of a crime. One of the main hallmarks of the unreliable narrator is a plot twist occurring by the end of the story.

Examples of stories that use this type of narration are The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Lolita, Life of Pi, and many of Edgar Allen Poe's and Agatha Christie's stories.
