Which sentence contains a word that is used correctly? The restaurant obliged new customers by refusing to take their reservations. The sun's gravity causes the earth to revolutionize around it. Some people think my friends are eccentric because they enjoy popular television shows. The homely garden was filled with dead branches, wilted flowers, and rotting fruit.
The sun's gravity causes the earth to revolutionize around it.
Answer:
None of the above
Explanation:
The restaurant obliged new customers by refusing to take their reservations. - Obliged means to do something in order to please someone else. Refusing to take a customer's reservation would not be pleasing.
The sun's gravity causes the earth to revolutionize around it. - Revolutionize means to change greatly, like the discovery of nuclear reactors revolutionized the way humans produce clean energy. The correct word to use would be revolve. Revolve means to move around in a circular fashion, which is the motion with which celestial bodies move about the sun.
Some people think my friends are eccentric because they enjoy popular television shows. - Eccentric means strange or unconventional. Popular TV shows are the opposite of what an eccentric one would watch. If popular was replaced with "unpopular", this sentence would be correct.
The homely garden was filled with dead branches, wilted flowers, and rotting fruit. - The word "homely" describes either an unattractive PERSON, or something that is cozy like one's home. The first definition is contradictory because a garden is not a person. The second definition is does not fit this sentence because the items in the garden would render it the opposite of cozy and comfortable.

Banana Tree(The book)
Lines 245–248: Why is the tree so important to Gustus? Does the use of dialect help or interfere with your understanding of Gustus’s emotion? Explain.
Answer:
"The Banana Tree" is a short story by Jamaican author James Berry. Gustus is a 13-year-old boy, the son of Mr. Bass. His father is a big man, not only physically speaking. Mr. Bass is seen as a reliable man of faith, who is friends with his community. However, Gustus' relationship with his father, at the beginning of the story, is filled with resentment. Gustus knows Mr. Bass is proud of him, of how big and strong he is. Yet, he feels unseen, misunderstood. Mr. Bass does not like what he likes, does not support his passion for cricket, and does not see his son's social needs - such as new shoes to go out with his friends.
Gustus has been taking care of a banana tree that was planted when he was born. Buried with the seed is Gustus' umbilical cord. In a way, Gustus and the tree are connected - his umbilical cord is nourishing the tree. He hopes to sell the fruit to buy himself the shoes he wants so much, but a hurricane hits his town. Gustus ends up leaving his family behind in the shelter to go prevent his precious bananas from being destroyed. However, the storm is vicious and hurts him badly.
At the end of the story, Mr. Bass and a searching party find Gustus. He asks his son what he did that for, and Gustus tells him the truth. Their relationship is immediately changed. Not only is Mr. Bass relieved to find his son alive, but he also begins to understand Gustus' needs. He even takes off his own boots to put them on his boy.
