Question

Read the sentence from the passage and answer the question that follows. And I saw that all had been the tormentors of their neighborsómalicious, dishonest, hypocrites, liars, rogues, calumniators, envious; that they had stolen, deceived, performed every disgraceful, every abominable action Which word, if substituted for rogues, would best retain the meaning of the passage? Citizens Heroes Scoundrels Felons

Answer 1

scoundrels. To me it makes the best sense because heroes could automatically be exited out, it doesn't fit the desccription dont realyy even need to give much detail on that one. As for citizens, that would fit in their but it doesnt out beat the other two. Now as for the last 2, i choose scoundrel over felons because scoundrel means a dishonest preson: or rogue so it actually fits the exact description, just another word for it.  hope i could help please leave a thanks and a five stars please!

Answer 2

C: Scoundrels
The meaning of the word means a person that is dishonest, or if well put a person that is "rogue".
