Answer:
"The old man was impervious to the cruel words of the children harassing him." Impervious meaning that he was indifferent to their words. He was unhurt. "Julie was always very meticulous with her writing and never had mechanical errors." Meticulous being that she is very careful and thorough, making sure not to miss anything. "The nostalgia of the room overwhelmed the man who had wanted to forget all about the war he had fought in." Nostalgia being concerned with the past, or looking back on the past, or wanting to remember or go bacck to the past. The room would be filled with memorabilias and souveniers of the war. I suggest dictionary.reference.com for definitions.

The coat is impervious to rain. The approaching deadline gave impetus to the investigation. His plans were put in jeopardy after the storm. He was a meticulous man, he always was thorough and thought things through. The old records he found gave him a sense of nostalgia as he thought of his misspent childhood. She thought her husband was the quintessence of evil. The criminals always seemed to retrogress after they left prison. The man was always to sure to scrutinize people as he met them. The water in the bath was tepid.

-Impervious means: not permitting penetration or passage; impenetrable. So you could use the phrase: "The coat is impervious to rain." -Impetus means: a moving force; impulse; stimulus. You could use the sentence: "The grant for building the opera house gave impetus to the city's cultural life." -Jeopardy means: hazard or risk of or exposure to loss, harm, death, or injury. So you could use the phrase: "For a moment his life was in jeopardy." -Meticulous means: taking or showing extreme care about minute details; precise; thorough. So you could use the sentence: "He was a meticulous craftsmans, making sure each piece of wood was cut perfectly." -Nosaligia means: wistful desire to return in thought or in fact to a former time in one's life, to one's home or homeland, or to one's family and friends; a sentimental yearning for the happiness of a former place or time. So you could use the sentence: "It was a clear case of nostalgia, for he stared at the picture of his homeland for hours on end." -Quintessence means: the purest or most typical instance. So you could use the phrase: "The quintessence of evil was overpowering." -Retrogress means: to go backward into an earlier and usually worse condition; to go backwards. So you could use the phrase: "To retrogress to infantilism." -Scruitinize means: to examine in detail with careful or critical attention. So you could use the sentence: "She was going to scrutinize that piece of paper with every ounce of concentration she had: her job depended on it." -Tepid means: moderately warm; lukewarm. So you could use the phrase "The water was tepid." If you would like to use different sentences, you could look the words up at www.dictionary.com and they will normally use a sentence after the word. I used that website to answer your questions, and I used some of the sentences they had. For most of them, though, I made up my own sentences. I hope I helped.

Rachel POD! :))
Though she felt guilty she played off the rest of evening imperviously. Erin generally isn't an impulse shopper, shoes are always an impetus force in helping her spend her money fast. Molly knew the consequences but decided to jeopardize her future at the school anyway. John didn't pay attention to details normally, but when it came to his art he was meticulous. James didn't think about the past however nostaliga set in when he saw his old friend. Jacky wasn't your typical quintessential nature lover. Much to my surprise my brother sold our new Xbox only to retrogress back to the original nintendo. Although my friends mean well they are begining to scrutinize my relationship with other friends. Despite how she picture her monologue in her head it came out tepid to the rest of the class. - These might not be the best but uhh atleast you didn't have to waste your brain on something as stupid as ... school, right?

He is impervious to to any argument and cannot be persuaded to see sense. On what insane impetus did you do this stupid thing? Your job will be in jeopardy if you do not pull your socks up and work harder! He takes meticulous care to do his work properly and always pays great attention to details. He has periods of nostalgia and cannot stop thinking of the days when he was young. George W. Bush is the quintessence of stupidity and idiocy. Bush's presidency is retrogressing into disaster. You must scrutinize your accounts and check them carefully for mistakes. This coffee is lukewarm and, dare I say, tepid! I demand a hot refill!

Here are a couple of them: James put his life in jeopardy. Mary is known for her meticulous flower arrangements. Looking through the old photo albums filled George with nostalgia. I wish my mother didn't scrutinize me. You'll have to find the others....sorry. I hope that helps

You will need to look them up and find the definition of them and then use them in a sentence. I always did my own homework. You learn better that way.

Look in the dictionary or on dicitonary.com, they usually have example sentences after the definition.
