Words in Use
Read the following passage to see how the new words are used in it.
The story of Sir Walter Raleigh, who spread his cloak on the ground to keep Queen Elizabeth from the
hardship
of crossing a muddy puddle,
can
qualify
that nobleman for an award as a man of
tact
and good breeding.
My brother Kenny, a
bachelor
with a
keen
interest in history, was impressed by that anecdote and thought he might demonstrate his excellent upbringing in a parallel situation.
Accordingly he decided to
abandon
his subway seat in favor of a woman standing nearby.
Although
unaccustomed
to such generous treatment, the young woman was pleased to accept Kenny's kind offer.
However, her
jealous
boyfriend swore an
oath
under his breath because he thought my brother was flirting with his girlfriend.
I don't have any
data
on the number of young men who get into similar trouble as a result of a
gallant
gesture,
but it's probably one in a thousand. Poor Kenny! He pointed to the now
vacant
seat.
