1. intimidate
2. scare
3. terrorize
4. petrify
5. attack

Question 8

AI reconstruction (instruction and added conditions): Apply the changes demonstrated by the upper pair to the lower design. Keep the central tiny shape and fill it; fill each inward peripheral marker, add a tiny hollow marker at each outward tip, move the dotted boundary outside the main solid outline, and simplify the overlapping inner outlines to one inner outline. Recolour the lines orange on white. Which option has all these features?

Question 11

Find two English words with the same or nearly the same meaning.
1. motivate; 2. insult; 3. calculate; 4. estimate; 5. list; 6. answer.
AI reconstruction: the response format is adapted from selecting two words. Enter their two position numbers as a two-digit number, smaller position first, with no separator. For example, positions 1 and 2 would be entered as 12. All six words remain unchanged.

Question 12

Choose a word with the same or nearly the same meaning as AFICIONADO. Read the English words as written.

5. pulsate

Question 14

Which illustrated object makes its characteristic crack when part of its flexible tip moves faster than sound? AI reconstruction: the original asked for the earliest human-made object to break the sound barrier; this version asks about the verified physical mechanism, without asserting an exact historical first.

1. Whip

2. ureter
3. fibula
4. choroid
5. sclera

Question 17

Find two English words with the same or nearly the same meaning.
1. book; 2. motto; 3. speech; 4. sign; 5. maxim; 6. memorandum.
AI reconstruction: the response format is adapted from selecting two words. Enter their two position numbers as a two-digit number, smaller position first, with no separator. For example, positions 1 and 2 would be entered as 12. All six words remain unchanged.

Choose the word that best preserves the relationship.

1. conductor
2. dancer
3. striker
