your mouth kind of metal reinforcement All right check the

00:12

following passage you mentioned a hotel brochure often beaumont In

00:29

the second sentence meticulously means what All right well if

00:37

we don't already know the definition of meticulously then this

00:41

one might be tough Several of these answer options would

00:44

make sense in the context of the sentence All right

00:47
