Answer 1

Answer 2

Hi. In order to find the correct answer, you must first know what a homonym is:

Definition: A homonym is two or more words that sound alike but are spelled differently and have different meanings.

In this case, the answer is:

Elementary school students are not allowed to talk while the teacher reads aloud after lunch.

Definitions:

Allowed: means you have permission to do something.
Aloud: refers to sound and means that you are talking so others can hear.

I hope this helps.

Take care,
