Explanation:

To solve these fill - in - the - blank questions, we analyze the context of each sentence and the meaning of the given vocabulary:

Question 1

The sentence is about reading something (like passages from larger works). The word "excerpt" means a short extract from a text. So we fill in "excerpt".

Question 2

The Great Wall of China is a protection for the nation, like a "vigil" (a watchful guard) over it. So we use "vigil".

Question 3

The sentence is about the sound of massive something by the lane. "Rubble" (broken pieces, like of buildings) can make a sound when moved or due to some event. So we choose "rubble".

Question 4

The parents of the injured child kept a "vigil" (a watchful presence) at the hospital all night. So we use "vigil".

Question 5

"A penny saved is a penny earned" is a wise "adage" (a traditional saying) to live by. So we fill in "adage".

Question 6

A Florida man "wrangled" (struggled with) an alligator to save his little dog. So we use "wrangled".

Question 7

Moms have a tendency to "hover" (stay close and watch over) over their children on the playground. So we choose "hover".

Question 8

When students "collaborate" (work together) and communicate in groups effectively, everyone learns more. So we use "collaborate".

Question 9

The earthquake left "rubble" (debris) in its wake. So we fill in "rubble".
