Explanation:

• Question 5: "patrician" refers to a member of the upper - class in society and "plebeian" refers to a commoner, so they are related to class in society. "phlegmatic" is about a temperament and "apocryphal" means of doubtful authenticity.
• Question 6: "accord" means agreement or harmony. "interpose" means to place something between other things, "comport" means to behave, and "mortify" means to cause someone to feel very embarrassed.
• Question 7: "indolent" means lazy or idle, "phlegmatic" can imply a slow - moving or unemotional nature, and "sluggish" means slow - moving. "therapeutic" is related to treatment.
• Question 8: "therapeutic" is related to treatment and medicine. "opulent" means wealthy, "periphery" refers to the outer parts, and "callow" means immature.
• Question 9: "paraphernalia" and "accoutrements" refer to equipment or gear. "increment" is an increase and "modicum" is a small amount.
• Question 10: "disconcert" and "dumbfound" mean to surprise or startle someone. "exude" means to discharge slowly and "interpose" means to place between.
