Question

1 use context to determine the meaning of the underlined word. i was sufficiently worn out after that 2 hour practice. 4 which choice best replaces the underlined portion with more concise wording? i am kind of thinking about joining band. a) not against b) maybe c) maybe pondering d) considering

Explanation:

For the first question, "sufficiently" means "enough" in this context. For the second question, "kind of thinking about" can be replaced with "considering" for more concise wording. "Considering" is a more straightforward and concise way to express the idea compared to the other options. "Not against" has a different meaning. "Maybe" is too vague on its own. "Maybe pondering" is wordier than "considering".

Answer:

1. "Sufficiently" means "enough".
2. d) considering.
