Answer 1

Good work, Daisy, but think more carefully about number 2. The word haggard is connected in this sentence with dirty and sad. Also, there is nothing in the sentence about quantity or an amount of anything. Haggard in this sentence functions as an adjective, as in "haggard face," so the correct answer cannot be a noun. When thinking about phrases like these, use every piece of available information, every angle, to help you reach your best conclusion. Good luck!

Answer 2

1. A is correct

2. B is correct

3. B is correct
