What does Dawson rubbing his hands on his pants suggest about how he is feeling?
Debate Day
The sound of shuffling papers and soft murmurs filled the
brightly lit meeting room. The day Dawson had been eagerly
preparing for with his debate team had arrived. It had been
three months of long nights studying and practicing.
He glanced over at the other team who were speaking softly to
each other in a huddle. "Why do they seem so calm and
collected?" he muttered to himself.
He suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness emerge in the pit
of his stomach, and he looked to see if he could gauge how his
team was feeling
"Are you doing alright, Dawson?" his teammate Elaine asked.
"Ready for this?"
Dawson nodded his head quickly in reply.
The moderator made a brief announcement and Dawson
approached the podium, rubbing the palms of his hands on his
pant legs
After two hours of intense debate rounds, one of the judges
stood to announce the winner. Dawson's team erupted in
cheers and began giving each other high fives. Dawson could
not hide his relief and elation
OA. It suggests he is very nervous as he approaches the podium.
OB. It suggests he likes to warm up before he speaks
OC It suggests he has not prepared well for the debate.
OD. It suggests he is excited about his opportunity to speak.

Answer 1

Answer:

OA. It suggests he is very nervous as he approaches the podium.

Explanation:

In the given scenario, the narrator mentions how Dawson was "rubbing the palms of his hands on his pant legs." This shows his nervousness because normally, rubbing of palms together is a sign of one's nervousness.

Moreover, the line "[H]e suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness emerge in the pit of his stomach" also reveals his 'nervous' state. He appeared uneasy, which is further clarified by the last line "Dawson could not hide his relief and elation."

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

She even thinks that up in heaven

Her class lies late and snores

While poor black cherubs rise at seven

What does the verse in Song of Solomon 5:16 mean “His mouth is most sweet “thank you very much

Answers

Hi there! Are you reading the Bible? I very much enjoy to read the Bible as well. And, sometimes to understand the Bible you need someone to guide you. If you have any questions you can come to me anytime.

Let me explain, this story is not about two lovers and the singers, King Solomon,  the Queen of Sheba and the singers as many have proposed. Instead this song is a love story of a shepherd boy and a country girl, a Shulammite.

As described by the book published by the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society “All scripture is inspired by God and beneficial” states: “The material in the book is presented through a series of conversations. There is a constant change of speakers. The persons with speaking parts are Solomon the king of Jerusalem, a shepherd, his beloved Shulammite, her brothers, court ladies (“daughters of Jerusalem”), and women of Jerusalem (“daughters of Zion”).”

Now, what does the girl mean when his lovers “mouth is most sweet” or as my Bible translation states: “His mouth is sweetness itself”? What she means is that her lover says sweet things with his lips. His lips are sweet because they express through words desirable and beautiful things she needs to hear. She is in love with him, and hearing beautiful words from his lips livens more her love for him. Based on Elliot‘s commentary, he states: “His mouth is most sweet.—Literally, his palate… his voice is exquisitely sweet. Palate, is used of the organ of speech and speech itself”. The Bible Translation of the New World states: “Your palate is sweet”.

The option among the answer choices that represents one theme of "To Build a Fire" is "Depending on others is critical to survival," letter D, as seen below.

The definition of theme

Theme of a literary work is an idea, message or lesson we can find in the story. The same story can actually have more than one theme. In the short story "To Build a Fire," by Jack London, one of the main themes is about how depending on others is essential for people to survive.

The story develops such theme through the character's actions and his tragic ending. The main character is a man who goes out into the wilderness alone, ignoring the warning by an old man not to do so. He ends up dying because of the freezing temperatures as he is unable to start and maintain a fire.

Had the man heeded the warning or had he had a companion other than the dog, he would have likely survived. Therefore, this confirms that the theme of the story is option D.
