Question 5 • FL-1001040-M/J Language Arts 2 B

Read this excerpt from "Old Johnny Appleseed.”Many years ago on the sparsely settled prairies of America there lived an old man who was known by the name of "Johnny Appleseed." His wife had died long ago, and his children had grown up and scattered to the corners of the earth. He had not even a home that he could call his own, but wandered about from place to place, with only a few friends and little or no money.

Answer
A
loud
B
lonely
C
chaotic
D
peaceful

Explanation

The excerpt says Johnny Appleseed had lost his wife, his children lived far away, and he had no home of his own. He also had only a few friends and little money, suggesting he was lonely. “Lonely” is the best choice; the passage does not describe a loud, chaotic, or peaceful setting.
