With speculative investments like oil wells and horse races, money is more easily made or lost; the gain is ____________ with the risk.

To tremble in the face of a storm is to ____________ .
Answer(s): B
"To tremble in the face of a storm" is to show fear or discomfort in a special way. Glower (to stare or scowl with sullen anger) does not connote fear or trembling; neither do shower, tower, or flower. To cower is to crouch, as from fear or cold, or to shrink and tremble.
Eleanor steadfastly refused to change her stubborn ways; she remained ____________ to the end.
Answer(s): C
Embattled (fighting), regurgitating (bringing partly digested food back to the mouth), decalcified (having calcium removed from the system), and concomitant (accompanying, attendant) do not in any way suggest a steadfast refusal to submit to change. The only possible choice is recalcitrant (refusing to obey authority, stubbornly defiant)
Benjamin Franklin said that ____________ is not always a virtue; there are times when you must speak up for yourself.
The context of this sentence suggests that "not speaking up for yourself" is not always good; in other words, the missing term has something to do with self-effacement. Only modesty can fill this gap properly.
They ____________ their offer of aid when they became disillusioned with the project
The sentence describes people who are disillusioned with a project. They are therefore most likely to rescind, or withdraw, their offer of aid.
