Question

read the sentence from paragraph 1.

from the deck of a boat, it’s exciting to see a humpback emerge from the ocean.

think about the prefix e-. what is the meaning of emerge above?

○ go across
○ come out of
○ act playfully
○ move very quickly

Explanation:

To determine the meaning of "emerge" in the sentence, we analyze the context and the prefix "e - ". The sentence describes a humpback whale coming out of the ocean. The prefix "e - " often means "out" or "from". Among the options, "come out of" matches the context of the whale emerging from the ocean. "Go across" implies moving through, "act playfully" is about behavior, and "move very quickly" is about speed, none of which fit the meaning of "emerge" here.

Answer:

B. come out of
