Question

1. “they had all vacated the car long before i was free from the dog and able to open my door and crawl out.” (81)

what does vacated most likely mean in this sentence? (l.8.4a)
left
cleaned
forgotten
opened

Explanation:

The context of the sentence is about people leaving the car. "Vacated" in this context means to leave a place. "Left" is the most appropriate synonym as it fits the scenario of people no longer being in the car. "Cleaned" implies making something tidy, which is not relevant here. "Forgotten" means to lose memory of, which doesn't make sense in this context. "Opened" refers to making something accessible by opening a door or lid, which is not the same as leaving.

Answer:

left
