First Question (Why is Miss Corey afraid to read the names of the people she's accused?):
We analyze each option. The correct option is "Giles is afraid that they will be arrested" (the selected one) because if Giles fears the people he's accused will be arrested, that would make Miss Corey afraid to read the names (as it could lead to their arrest, maybe she doesn't want that or fears consequences). Other options: "The court's purpose is confusing for her" – not related to fear of reading names. "Giles is afraid of Abigail's revenge" – Abigail's revenge isn't directly about reading names. "Paris has threatened to have him arrested" – Paris threatening Giles doesn't connect to Miss Corey reading names.
Proctor's response ("There might also be a dragon with five legs in my house, but no one has seen it") is a sarcastic way to dismiss Parris's baseless accusation. So he's tired of defending against such ridiculous claims with no proof. Let's check options: "He is angry at Mary for mentioning poppets to a suspicious Parris" – no, response is to Parris, not about Mary. "He is afraid that he has been bewitched to see invisible dragons" – sarcasm, not literal fear. "He is worried that Elizabeth will think he is lying for sympathy" – no, response is about Parris's accusation, not Elizabeth's opinion. So the correct one is "He is tired of defending ridiculous accusations without any real proof".
In the context of "The Crucible", Abigail, to avoid questioning, might accuse others of witchcraft (accuse John Proctor of witchcraft) to shift blame. Let's check options: "accuse John Proctor of witchcraft" – this is a common tactic of Abigail to deflect. "say that Elizabeth is an unfair judge" – Elizabeth isn't a judge. "accuse Elizabeth of being possessed" – less likely than accusing Proctor. "run away from Salem out of shame" – Abigail doesn't show shame. So correct is "accuse John Proctor of witchcraft".
