Which of the following is most likely to be considered a credo ?

No one will be admitted without proper I.D.

In this passage, some of the words from this lesson are in bold. Read the passage and then answer the questions. My mother, a famous artist, did not get along with her own mother when she was a college student in the 1960s. "She just regurgitated conventional ideas about how to live a happy life, such as getting married and starting a family right away, my mother told me. "I wanted to be an iconoclast and challenge all those ideas and expectations. I didn't want to be just another bourgeois housewife in a suburb somewhere" "Didn't you care about your mother's approval?" I asked, knowing how important it was to me to have my mom's approbation. I couldn't imagine rebelling against my mother the way she had rebelled against her own. "It was hard knowing she didn't approve of me," my mother said, her face serious, "but I was so young and idealistic. All that mattered to me was being able to express myself and live the life I wanted to live. I didn't even mind being indigent for a while when she refused to support me financially" "But today you guys are best friends," I pointed out. "And you are a wife and mother. Who lives in the suburbs." My mom shook her head and laughed. "My life took a different path than my mother's, but in the end, it's funny how moms are almost always right." The word regurgitated in the above paragraph most nearly means:

to repeat something without thinking it through.

to expel partially digested food from the stomach.

to restate clearly with additional evidence.
