question 8
which of the following is the best definition of integrity?

Explanation:

• For the first question:
• The word "avaricious" means greedy. A wealthy miser overcharging poor people for low - quality goods shows greed (avarice). A remorseful woman apologizing is about regret, a supernatural being granting wishes is a magical act, and a young man acting without thinking is about impulsivity.
