    Explanation
    The correct answer is "in looking." This is because the phrase "not interested" requires the preposition "in" to show what Rhesa is not interested in. In this case, Rhesa is not interested in looking for a new job. Therefore, the correct phrase is "not interested in looking."

    Correct Answer
    A. Have
    Explanation

    Correct Answer
    A. Would
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "would." This is because the sentence is in the conditional form, expressing a hypothetical situation. "Would" is used to indicate a hypothetical or unreal condition in the present or future. In this case, it suggests that if the speaker were in the same situation as the person they are addressing, they would not let her be in danger.
