Choice D, 'Emigrant,' is someone who leaves their own country to settle permanently in another.

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Confinement away from the general population.' Quarantine refers to keeping someone isolated from the general population to prevent the spread of disease. Choice B, 'A specialist's care,' is incorrect as it refers to medical treatment by a specialist, not isolation. Choice C, 'Experimental drug therapy,' is incorrect as it involves the administration of new drugs for research purposes, not isolation. Choice D, 'Imprisonment in a rehabilitation unit,' is incorrect as it implies being detained in a rehabilitation facility, not isolation for health reasons.

Correct Answer: D

The other choices are incorrect: A) 'Quantity' refers to an amount, B) 'Inflation' refers to the rise in prices, and C) 'Strength' refers to the power or quality of being strong.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'Complaining.' 'Querulous' means complaining in a petulant or whining manner.
