Since Jennifer reads frequently and with enthusiasm, she is best described as an avid or devoted reader.

The key description that we have for Bill is his "crazy" lifestyle. In contrast to this, he has decided at last to "settle down," meaning that he has decided to live a calmer life. When one is "sensible," that person is practical and prudent. A "sensible" set of actions is one that is level-headed—far indeed from being "crazy."

The sentence opens by explaining the natural state of human life. Most people need seven to eight hours of sleep (at least according to this sentence). The word "although" indicates a contrast between these "normal" humans and those needing less sleep. While we might think that such sleep patterns lead to sickness, we cannot assume this is what the author wishes to express. All we know is that he or she is contrasting normal and abnormal patterns. Therefore, the safest answer is "unnatural."

Based on the context you know you are looking for a word that relates to the reckless destruction of something. The correct answer is therefore "wanton" which means reckless, random, and cruel. Additionally, "opaque" means not transparent, not able to be seen through; "indispensable" means vital, needed, essential; "stagnant" means not moving, not growing; "unscathed" means unhurt, not wounded by.

If everyone is wearing something it could be said to be popular or "vogue." Additionally, "reactionary" means very conservative, wanting the status quo to continue and fiercely opposed to change; "dismal" means of poor quality; "prohibited" means forbidden, not allowed; "erroneous" means incorrect, wrong.

Someone who is inconsistent and always changing his or her mind is called “fickle.” “Reckless” means behaving and acting without caution or dangerous; “constant” means not changing; “persistent” means dedicated or willing to keep trying to make something work; and “sustained” means long-lasting.

If someone does not like horror movies, the most logical reason would be that those types of movies have an effect that makes him feel "anxious," or worried. Therefore, "anxious"is the correct answer. While scary movies may make someone feel "excited" or "enthralled," those are generally positive characteristics that would cause someone to like a movie, rather than dislike it. Scary movies are not generally characterized as making people "bored" or "sad," so those answer choices are incorrect.

From the context of the second part of the sentence, you know that the Joneses make their guests feel welcomed. This means they are very “hospitable.” To further help you, "miserly" means _not generous with money; "_parsimonious" means economical with money; "despicable" means evil or wicked.

The sentence suggests that the warden has tasted some perfect pudding. The answer choice is therefore likely to mean delicious. The correct answer is “scrumptious,” which means tasty or delicious. To help you, "punctual" means on time, "abhorrent" means gross and unnatural, "miserly" means tight with money, "gregarious" means outgoing and sociable.

The author tells us that Jenny struggles with talking to people and is not extroverted, so we know that the answer choice must describe someone who is shy and quiet. This information tells us that the correct answer is "taciturn" which means quiet, timid, introverted. To provide further help, an "extrovert" is someone who is confident with people and affable; "affable" means friendly, sociable; "tenacious" means determined; "gregarious" means friendly; "laborious" means hard-work, tasking.
