Question..

a)  When Weissmuller left the poolside, the crowd of 7,000 stood and chanted for
him to reappear to take abow.
b)  They had striking, slashing and piercing weapons held in the hand, fastened to a
shaft or thong, hurled from the hand, from a sling, from an atlatl or throwing stick,
or shot from a bow.
c)  If you're more of a wallflower trying to break away from your conservative
side, try a short dress in a neutral color such as black or brown, accented with a
leopard print strapless top with a pink belt or bow.

My answer.....

a. The word bow in first text means 'makes the head or upper part of the body
bend', which is commonly used as a sign of greeting, respect or gratitude. In
the agreed "bow" sentence is the body because from the word before it shows
the body of the person, from the sentence it can be interpreted "When
Weissmuller went to the swimming pool, a crowd of 7,000 people went up and
shouted at him to reappear to bow. I was able to find the meaning of the word
bow in that sentence because I understood each sentence and found the meaning of the
bow to honor with the language of the body.

b. . The word bow in second text means 'arc'. I use a wider context where I
observe the sentences before 'or shot from a bow'. These sentence describes
about weapon. And the sentence 'or shoot from the bow' The word bow in the
above sentence has the sense of the noun that a bow is categorized as a weapon used
for shooting arrows, and bow is also used as a principal tool in archery sports.

c. The meaning of bow in the third sentence is a knot with two curved parts and
two loose ends, used as a decoration. The way I know is by understanding
the sentence’s context. This sentence about a style dress.
