Question

select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.

1. greg had finished his book report; now he just had to do the bibliography
2. bella did not like to her coach, but she knew she was right.
3. sam enjoyed reading works from the 1800s.
4. janas job at the pub involves reading sent in by aspiring writers.

(the drop - down menu for question 2 shows options: indicate, litigate, scribble, contradict)

Explanation:

For the second sentence "Bella did not like to [blank] her coach, but she knew she was right", we need a verb that makes sense in the context of disagreeing with the coach. "Contradict" means to assert the opposite of what someone else has said, which fits here as Bella knows she is right and might be disagreeing with her coach. "Indicate" means to show or point out, which doesn't fit. "Litigate" is related to legal proceedings, not appropriate here. "Scribble" means to write carelessly, which is irrelevant. So the correct word is "contradict".

Answer:

contradict
