Not sure what this means in a certain context
Hi everyone, I have another vocabulary question. Astronautics owes much to the \_\_\_ contributions of Charles E. Whitsett. His ground-brekaing development of the manned maneuvering unit enabled the first spacewalks in which astronauts were not tethered to a spacecraft. A. Dubious B. futile c. galvanizing d. avant-garde How is the answer avant-garde? I got the answer through process of elimination, but is there a better way to get it? Thank you so much!

Does this sentence make sense?
Does this sentence make sense? "If you need to muse I'm the moonlight." It's for a song lyric so the meaning behind is more poetic language i suppose, but considering English is not my first language I'd ask people who does.
“He’s been a student for going on five years.” Is this sentence correct? Can “going on five years” mean almost five years?
