How to Use This Book

This series contains vocabulary words selected from Defining Twilight, which is based on the popular Twilight book by Stephanie Meyer. Many of these words will show up on your SAT, ACT, GED, or SSAT. Refer to the Twilight page where each vocabulary word appears. Read the word in context and come up with a definition. Then check your definitions against those provided and make corrections. I’ll also show you synonyms, word parts, and memorization tools. You may want to print out each day’s exercises, since they call for definitions you may want to write down to help you memorize. There’s no easier or more fun way to learn vocabulary words!

Solution

D. Noble means dignified or royal. The best answer is regal, which means royal. Inconsequential means not important, omnipresent means present everywhere, permanent means lasting, and intransient also means lasting (in- means not, and trans- means across, so intransient means not across, or staying put—lasting!).
