now write a sentence using the words not used in the sentences above.

Explanation:

Question 1

We know that an adjective is a part of speech that describes a noun. So we choose "adjective" to fill in the blank.

When someone gets a bad grade, they may feel dejected (meaning sad or depressed). So "dejected" is the appropriate word here.

A science project is a common phrase, and when his father asked him to work on a science project, he cheered up. So "project" fits here.

Answer:

adjective
