(1) As Aoi Kimura lay in her single room within the women's dormitory located underneath Tokyo Station, she realized that there was nothing more terrifying in the world than the first day of work. Well, it wasn't really her first day, she admitted to herself. She had joined the train company two years prior, performing different tasks at the train station near her home. (2) She had impressed her supervisors, meaning she was worthy of a promotion to train conductor. Her beige uniform freshly laundered and pressed, hung near the door. If she could perform well over the next three years, then maybe, just maybe, they'd let her drive the bullet train-the Shinkansen. (1) Not was already out of bed before the alarm on the far wall started howling. Switching it off before it could sound, she donned her uniform and did her hair and makeup Everything in its proper place, she left the room with her overnight bag and made the short walk down to the employee rest area. Similarly dressed conductors and drivers were there drinking coffee and chatting happily. Aor's empty stomach twisted at the thought of a stained uniform. Which word could replace the world howling in paragraph 3 and mean the same thing? blaring chirping ringing ticking

'ringing'

Explicação

## Step 1<br />The problem is asking us to find a synonym for the word "howling" in the context of the given paragraph. The word "howling" in this context refers to the sound of an alarm clock.<br />## Step 2<br />We need to consider the meanings of the given options: "blaring", "chirping", "ringing", and "ticking". <br />## Step 3<br />"Blaring" and "ringing" are both synonyms for "howling" when referring to loud sounds, such as an alarm clock. <br />## Step 4<br />"Chirping" is typically used to describe the sound of birds or small animals, and "ticking" is often used to describe the sound of a clock's ticking. Neither of these words fits the context of the alarm clock in the paragraph.<br />## Step 5<br />Therefore, the word that could replace "howling" in paragraph 3 and mean the same thing is "ringing".
