what does \unachievable\ mean in these sentences?
wes read his long list of chores. \this seems like an unachievable amount of work!\ he groaned. \but i will do my best!\
options:

• the opposite of doing hard work
• the result of doing hard work
• cannot be done successfully
• cannot be read quickly

Explanation:

To determine the meaning of "unachievable" in the sentence, we analyze the context. Wes has a long list of chores and says the amount of work seems unachievable, then says he'll do his best. "Unachievable" here means the work can't be done successfully. The other options don't fit: "the opposite of doing hard work" is incorrect (unachievable is about the work's possibility, not the action of working hard), "the result of doing hard work" is wrong (hard work's result is usually achievement, not unachievement), and "cannot be read quickly" is irrelevant to the work amount's achievability.

Answer:

B. cannot be done successfully
