Explanation:
This task is about filling in missing words from a movie scene. You need to remember what happened in the film or guess based on context.
Let’s go one by one:
1) Skeeter wants to write about black women who raise white children — and why they can’t use the bathroom in white homes. That’s the big issue in the story.
2) Margaret Mitchell is the editor of a newspaper. She doesn’t believe in the project at first because she thinks no one will tell Skeeter the truth.
3) The black maids are scared. They don’t want to take a risk — meaning, they’re afraid something bad might happen if they speak up.
4) Skeeter follows Aibileen to see what a white person’s life is really like — from the inside.
5) She wants to know how much Aibileen gets paid, and also learn about her work and the conditions she works in.
6) Minny has to go to the bathroom, but Hilly won’t let her use it — so Minny uses it anyway, and Hilly refuses to accept that.
7) Hilly gets angry with Minny when she finds out Minny used her toilet — which is a big deal in the movie.
For the grammar part:
- “The book biz could use…” → “could” is the modal verb.
- “One evening Minny went…” → past tense, so “went”.
- “Minny used…” → again, past tense, so “used”.
Just think: What word fits best? What makes sense in the story? That’s how you fill in the blanks.
