Question

1. if re- means \back,\ what does remitted mean in the following sentence? because her illness was getting worse, she was remitted to the hospital.

placed back

sent back

written back

driven back

Explanation:

1. Analyze the prefix "re-" which means "back".
2. Analyze the context: her illness was getting worse, so she was sent back to the hospital.
3. "Placed back" is not the most appropriate verb for being sent to a hospital. "Written back" and "driven back" do not fit the context of being sent to a hospital due to illness. "Sent back" is the most appropriate as it implies being dispatched back to the hospital for medical care.

Answer:

B. sent back
