Explanation:

Question 4

To determine the meaning of "missed" in the sentence "He missed the small town where he lived before his dad got a new job", we analyze the context. The sentence is about longing for or feeling sad about leaving the town. Option A ("to be too late for something") doesn't fit. Option B ("a small amount of light rain") is a different meaning of "mist" or "drizzle", not "missed". Option C ("a cloud of very tiny water drops") is also about a weather - related term. Option D ("to feel sad about leaving something") matches the context of missing a place because of leaving it.

We need to find the main reason the cafeteria setting is important. Option A: The story doesn't mention Ling seeing people talking and missing Mateo in the cafeteria. Option B: There's no indication Miss Aguilera welcomes Ling in the cafeteria to make him feel better. Option C: The cafeteria scene isn't about Ana seeing Ling's lunchbox and asking about basketball. Option D: The cafeteria is where Ling sits at Ana's table and meets her friends, which is a key part of the plot development.

Answer:

D. to feel sad about leaving something
