real and tangible touchable

the hunter’s quarry prey

put at ease by his disarming smile intended to relax or comfort

a charming, cultivated woman refined

a cruise ship offering every amenity comfort; luxury

condone rather than condemn allow; accept

a droll, self-mocking grin amusing

felt no scruples about breaking traffic laws sense of right and wrong

asked solicitously about my health in a concerned way

recommended but not imperative absolutely necessary

zealous support of the mayor’s program enthusiastic

an uncanny coincidence strange; mysterious
