choose the correct meaning of the bold word in the following sentence. the wind blew across the "desolate" field. A. deserted B. unfortunate C. dangerous D. frozen

Respuesta :

If you don't know what the word "desolate" means, you can use prefixes, suffixes, and root words in addition to context clues to figure out the meaning. First, we have the prefix "de-" which implies removal or lack of something. Next, the word "-late" can mean after, the end of, etc. "Sol" is usually used in nouns referring to something to do with soil. So, it could mean something like "no plant life, it's past growing season" or something, considering it is talking about a field. The correct answer is A. deserted. Hope this helps!
