Question

Which words from the paragraph help the reader understand the meaning of the underlined word? I had the feeling I was going to get the dog I'd daydreamed about. I guessed when I overheard my mother on the phone. My hunch turned out to be correct that evening when my dad opened the car door and a playful pup bounded into my arms. Choose all answers that are correct. A. guessed B. feeling C. bounded D. daydreamed

Answer 1

My hunch turned out to be correct that evening... The answer is letter B. The word feeling is the only substitute from the alternatives that has the same meaning of the word hunch and can help the reader understand the meaning of the paragraph. The words guessed, bounded and daydreamed are not nouns.
