Question

question 17 what is the meaning of \encroach\ as it is used in paragraph 6? a. hunt b. endanger c. enhance d. intrude

Explanation:

To determine the meaning of "encroach", we analyze the options:

• Option A: "hunt" means to pursue or catch animals, which has no relation to "encroach".
• Option B: "endanger" means to put at risk, while "encroach" is about invading space/rights, not directly about danger.
• Option C: "enhance" means to improve, which is the opposite of the sense of "encroach".
• Option D: "intrude" means to enter or interfere without permission, which matches the typical meaning of "encroach" (to gradually enter or take over someone's space, rights, etc. without permission).

Answer:

D. intrude
