## Step 1For question 13, we need to choose the most logical and precise word or phrase that completes the sentence. The sentence is about the impact of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) on Asians Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPIs). The sentence suggests that CHB affects AAPIs more than other major hepatitis strains. Therefore, the word or phrase should indicate a higher than average impact.## Step 2For question 14, we need to choose the most logical and precise word or phrase that completes the sentence. The sentence is about scientists' view on the condition called canities subita, also known as Marie Antoinette syndrome. The sentence suggests that scientists do not take this condition seriously. Therefore, the word or phrase should indicate a dismissive or belittling attitude.## Step 3For question 15, we need to understand the meaning of the word "bring out" as used in the text. The text is about Marie, an aristocrat, who is arranging a room and wants to emphasize the colors of the carpet. Therefore, the word "bring out" should mean to emphasize or highlight.
