Answer 1

5. **D. economy**Parker's short stories, often less than three pages, demonstrate an "economy" of language. This refers to using words efficiently and precisely, maximizing impact with minimal verbiage.6. **E. habitual ... expect**The sentence structure suggests a positive relationship between parents' past experience with Sesame Street and their current view of it for their children. "Habitual" viewing implies a comfortable familiarity, leading parents to "expect" their children will also benefit from watching it. This expectation makes the show an attractive platform for advertisers seeking a large young audience.7. **B. maverick**A "maverick" is someone who acts independently, often going against conventional wisdom. Selling shares against the advice of economic advisors demonstrates this independent, unconventional behavior.8. **B. flamboyant**The contrast presented in the sentence points to an antonym for "conservative." "Flamboyant" describes a style that is bold, showy, and unrestrained, fitting the contrast with conservative men's clothing.
