Wordmaster: Chapters 1-8

1) Maybe a person who used to live on Galapagos or Guayaquil, Ecuador.
 2) To keep us as readers interested, and some way that will probably be explained because of their brains. 3)After the ship makes it to Galapagos.


This week my job was the word master, so here are some words to explore:
parched,
(pg13)
"to make extremely, excessively, or completely dry, as heat, sun, and wind do."
subterranean (pg 13)
"
existing, situated, or operating below the surface of the earth; underground" 
asexual, (pg16)
1." free from affectation; sincere; genuine: The man showed unaffected grief at the death of his former opponent."
2."unpretentious, as a personality or literary style."
archipelago, (pg 18)
 "A large group or chain of islands."
lawlessness. (pg 23)
"Contrary to or without regard for the law: lawless violence."
polyethylene (pg 26)
"A  plastic polymer of ethylene used chiefly for containers, electrical insulation, and packaging."
