Question
arnold rampersad wrote a biography to tell the story of jackie robinsons life. what does the word that contains the stem probably mean? ○ a life that is shortened by illness or disease ○ story of someone elses life ○ to take someones life; murder
The word with the stem here is "biography". The stem "bio - " relates to life, and "graphy" relates to writing or recording. A biography is a written account of someone else's life. The first option refers to a life shortened by illness (more related to "biography"’s root but misapplied), and the third is about taking life (unrelated). So the correct meaning is the story of someone else’s life.
