Answer and Explanation:

First, if we understand the meaning of each word, it will be easier to fill in the blanks. Let's take a look:

a. exonerate - clear, absolve, acquit

b. culminate - to reach a climax; to end in something

c. eminent - famous and respected at a certain field

d. persevere - to persist, to keep on, to continue

e. feasible - achievable, likely, practical

Now, let's complete each sentence. Let's also make any necessary changes:

1. I don't know if it is feasible to try to attend both the basketball game and the birthday party tonight. - No changes needed

2. Many of the city's premier artists and eminent businessmen attended the fundraiser. - No changes needed

3. The opening ceremonies of the Olympics culminated in a fantastic fireworks display. - It's best if we use the verb in its past form: culminate --> culminated

4. The football player was exonerated of all charges filed against him. - Let's use the past participle of "exonerate" since the sentence is in the passive voice --> exonerated

5. I admire Mitchell's perseverance despite his obvious physical handicaps. - this sentence needs a noun to complete the blank, so we need to transform "persevere" into a noun --> perseverance

the correct answer option for this is: false.

explanation:

we are given the following statement 'hawthorne thought of himself as a novelist' which is false.

the truth is that nathaniel hawthorne thought of himself as a romancer, rather than a novelist.

though it is ironic of him of him to consider himself a romancer rather than a novelist despite of the innocent women killings in the salem witch trials which occurred in colonial massachusetts between 1692 and 1693 .
