Answer from: gdubak

1. unsophisticated

2. imprudent

3. dissociation

4. plaudit

5. modify

6. malodorous

Explanation:

"intricacy" refers to the characteristics of things that contains a lot of complicated details.

"sophisticated" is a synonym of "complicated"

"complexity" is the noun form of "complex" - which is synonym with "complicated"

Meanwhile, "unsophisticated" has opposite meaning with "sophisticated" => antonym of "complicated"

- "expedient" is used to describe action that is convenient and practical despite its possible improper.

- "advantageous" is used to describe thing that helps you do something more easily or conveniently

=> both words have the similar meaning with "convenient"

- "imprudent" refers to actions that lack of care for the consequence

- "dissociation" is used to refer to actions of separating from something else

- "intention" refers to aimed thing, plan

- "aspiration" is what you hope to achieve

- "design" refers to plan or drawing or arrangement produced to demonstrate the look or function

In these 4 words, "intention, aspiration and design" contain the meaning of things that are planned and known before, different from "dissociation".

- "resentment", "grievance" and "grudge" contain the meaning of negative feeling or attitudes towards things or people.

- "plaudit" refers to the expression of applause - which is positive

- "mollify" has the meaning of reducing the severity or softening something

- "pacify" and "appease" also contain the meaning of softening the tense

- "modify" refers to the action of making changes for something => different from the other

- all "savory", "appetizing", "flavorsome" are adjectives used to describe foods with good taste, delicious.

- "malodorous " means the unpleasant smell of something => different

Which two lines in this excerpt from arthur conan doyle's "the contest" suggest that emperor nero was ruthless? each choice is in brackets. [an hour later the shepherd was well on his way to his mountain home, and about the same time the emperor, having received the chaplet of olympia for the incomparable excellence of his performance, was making inquiries with a frowning brow as to who the insolent person might be who had dared to utter such contemptuous criticisms.] [“bring him to me here this instant,” said he, “and let marcus with his knife and branding-iron be in attendance.”] [“rumours! ” cried the angry nero. “what do you mean, arsenius? i tell you that the fellow was an ignorant upstart, with the bearing of a boor and the voice of a peacock.] [i have half a mind to burn their town about their ears so that they may remember my visit.”] [“i conquered! you are mad, arsenius. what do you mean? ”] [it is whispered that for once the great god pan has condescended to measure himself against a mortal.”]

She took up a scalpel and slit the monkey's abdomen, making a slow and gentle cut, keeping the blade well away from her gloved fingers. the spleen was puffed up and tough, leathery, like a globe of smoked salami. she did not see any bloody lesions inside this monkey. she had expected that the monkey's interior would be a lake of blood, but no, this monkey looked all right, it had not bled into itself. if the animal had died of ebola, this was not a clear case. she opened up the intestine. there was no blood inside it. the gut looked okay. then she examined the stomach. there she found a ring of bleeding spots at the junction between the stomach and the small intestine. this could be a sign of ebola, but it was not a clear sign. it could also be a sign of simian fever, not ebola. therefore, she could not confirm the presence of ebola virus in this animal based on a visual inspection of the internal organs during necropsy.
