Part A: Vocabulary Completion

1.

The sentence needs a verb in the past tense to show the teacher's statement. "Asserted" means to state firmly, which fits the context of the teacher clearly stating the possibility of going to college.

In chemistry, accurate measurements are important. "Precise" means exact and accurate, so it fits the context of her being exact with measurements to get good grades.

The phrase "do everything in moderation" is a common expression meaning to do things in a balanced way, not too much or too little. So "moderation" fits here.

Answer:

asserted
