Question

Which word gives the correct meaning of the underlined word in this paragraph?

The morning my brother arrived at college, he was the only OCCUPANT in his dorm room. His roommate, Carl, didn't arrive until that afternoon. Carl brought another inhabitant to share their space. It was his pet spider, named Hairy.


A. loafer


B. sponsor

C. seeker

D. dweller

Answer 1

The answer is dweller. Dweller gives correct meaning to the word Occupant.


Hope this helps :)

Sponsor means to provide funds for an activity/project and Loafer means a person who idles time away, and a seeker is a person who is attempting to find something or someone.
