Answer
The correct answers are 3. notable and 4. respected.* **Notable** means worthy of attention or notice; remarkable. A distinguished poet is certainly someone notable, as they have achieved recognition for their work.* **Respected** means admired or held in high esteem. Distinction often comes with respect, as it implies achievement and merit. A distinguished poet would likely be respected for their skill and contributions to literature.
