The correct answer is A. Earth
Explanation:
A root word is a word by itself which can be combined with suffixes and prefixes to create new words, thus root words cannot be shortened but by adding other words or letter before or after them new words are created by mixing the meaning of the root word and the word, syllable or letter added. The words geology, georgic and geode have a common root word which is geo and which is combined with different suffixes such as -logy, -ergic and -de to create new words. The root word geo derives from Greek and means earth, ground or land, as mentioned before the root word is combined with suffixes to create new meanings in this way -logy means the science or study of something which means geology is the study of earth or land; -ergic means produce by, which means georgic is a poem produced or inspired by land (agriculture ) and the suffix -ede means separation which is links to geode definition which is a formation of rocks. Thus, the root word geology, georgic, and geode share is "geo" which means Earth.

Explanation:
Answer:
Lily's comment about "poor news reporting" shows in a humorous way that in her childlike view of the world, the things that are happening to her personally are the most important; she still has the egocentric outlook that everything centers around herself. Her comment is ironic in that the reader knows that the events covered in the newspaper are important to the world at large, while her action is relatively insignificant when all is said and done, but Lily thinks it is the most important thing.
Lily has broken Rosaleen out of prison, and is trying to escape with her to safety. In her imagination, she fears that there are "wanted posters (in the post office) of (her) and Rosaleen," and that the newspapers are filled with details of her deed. When she gets a copy of the paper and spreads it out on the ground in an alley, she is surprised to find that it is
"full of Malcolm X, Saigon, the Beatles, tennis at Wimbledon, and a motel in Jackson, Mississippi, that closed down rather than accept Negro guests, but nothing about (her) and Rosaleen."
Not understanding that, in the greater scheme of things, her actions are insignificant, Lily blames the oversight on "poor news reporting. She says,
"Sometimes you want to fall on your knees and thank God in heaven for all the poor news reporting that goes on in the world" (Chapter 3).
