Answer and Explanation:

1. Coquette is the term given to a very flirtatious and charming person. In "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" Katrina is a coquette, because she likes to flirt and charm men with all her femininity. The upbringing she received helped her to be that way, because her parents taught her to be attractive and draw the attention of many admirers.

2. Ichabod's rival could use the teacher's reputation to make him badly liked in society, causing people not to admire him and not allow him to be welcomed in the territory, in addition to treating him badly to the point that he would prefer to leave town.

3. the passage shows how Ichabod is an ambitious and conceited man, who, besides wanting to have a beautiful woman by his side, thinks about making a lot of money with everything she has, leaving him successful, rich and envied.
