C. Consistently unbeatable
D. Capable of using defensive motion


PLEASE HELP!!!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C or A

Explanation:

Its either a or c because b and d don't make sense. If I was asked that question, I would probably pick c.

Answer 2

Capable of withstanding shock is the letter of the word or phrase that matches the word in italics. Hence, option A is correct.

What is the A Sound Of Thunder?

Provides wealthy explorers the chance to travel back in time and hunt extinct animals like dinosaurs. A hunter by the name of Eckels invests $10,000 to join a hunting group that will travel 66 million years in time to the Late Cretaceous period in order to embark on a guided safari to kill a Tyrannosaurus rex.

In "A Sound of Thunder," the butterfly stands in for the delicate ecological balance of the natural world. Bradbury reminds us that a butterfly, like every other species, has a place in the natural order despite its small size.

Thunder is a metaphor for both the dangers of human conceit as well as everyone's unavoidable demise.

Thus, option A is correct.

Read the paragraph. (1) Outside, the snow hit the ground with a faint tapping; inside, the heater came on with a distant roar. (2) Outside, the wind howled through the big oak; a log snapped in the fireplace. (3) Outside, footsteps crunched hurriedly past the window; inside, the cat stretched and purred. (4) In the night, an owl hooted; in the room, a page turned. What revision should be made to maintain parallel structure

Answers

Answer:

B)  Sentence 2 should be revised to read, "Outside, the wind howled through the big oak; inside, a log snapped in the fireplace."

Explanation:

If you add "inside" to the second sentence, it will have the same parallel as "outside."When two or more ideas are balanced in a phrase or clause, the grammar form is called "parallel." This makes it easy for the reader to keep up with what is going on and not have to try to figure out what is happening.

Original Question:

Read the paragraph.

(1) Outside, the snow hit the ground with a faint tapping; inside, the heater came on with a distant roar. (2) Outside, the wind howled through the big oak; a log snapped in the fireplace. (3) Outside, footsteps crunched hurriedly past the window; inside, the cat stretched and purred. (4) In the night, an owl hooted; in the room, a page turned.

What revision should be made to maintain parallel structure?

a) Sentence 1 should be revised to read, "Outside the snow fell; inside the heater came on with a distant roar."

b) Sentence 2 should be revised to read, "Outside, the wind howled through the big oak; inside, a log snapped in the fireplace."

c) Sentence 3 should be revised to read, "Outside, footsteps walked hurriedly past the window; inside, the cat stretched and purred."

d) Sentence 4 should be revised to read, "In the night, an owl hooted; in the room, a page turned."

The dead of Simon indicated how the end of humanism in the other boys began fading (since the boys brutally killed him). Now, piggy represented technology and advancement (since he was smart and had the glasses that supplied everyone with fire), he died with no one in Jacks side truly caring about the death of a human being. With all this stated, Golding portrayed the end of Simon and Piggy as symbolism on how the boys lost his civilized self's each day at the island.

CHAPTER II—THE SHE-WOLF, an excerpt
From White Fang
By Jack London

Breakfast eaten and the slim camp-outfit lashed to the sled, the men turned their backs on the cheery fire and launched out into the darkness. At once began to rise the cries that were fiercely sad—cries that called through the darkness and cold to one another and answered back. Conversation ceased. Daylight came at nine o'clock. At midday the sky to the south warmed to rose-colour, and marked where the bulge of the earth intervened between the meridian sun and the northern world. But the rose-colour swiftly faded. The grey light of day that remained lasted until three o'clock, when it, too, faded, and the pall of the Arctic night descended upon the lone and silent land.

As darkness came on, the hunting-cries to right and left and rear drew closer—so close that more than once they sent surges of fear through the toiling dogs, throwing them into short-lived panics.

At the conclusion of one such panic, when he and Henry had got the dogs back in the traces, Bill said:

"I wisht they'd strike game somewheres, an' go away an' leave us alone."

"They do get on the nerves horrible," Henry sympathized.

They spoke no more until camp was made.


Which most clearly expresses the impact of the hunting-cries that surround the men in this part of the story?
To add an element of surprise
To add a sense of adventure
To create a feeling of compassion
To create tension and conflict

Answers

Answer:

D. To create tension and conflict

Hi everyone,

I am having some worries. I noticed I have been binging on fast food a lot since the lockdown early this year and it seems hard to stop. I know fast food is bad, but can you give me some advice to help me stop?

Answer my question like you write an e-mail, pleaseee. I love you guys.​

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

(Email Format)

Hello,

I heard you have been having some trouble with eating too much fast food. I suggest that you try eating something healthier. You can start out small, like eating a fruit a day or having a salad once or twice a week. This will mix up your diet so that you don't crave for only fast food.

If you really want to stop eating fast food (until you can control the amount you can eat), think of it as wasting money on "bad" food (Obviously it isn't all bad, but thinking that it is in this sense will make you not want to get the fast food).

I hope this helps sort out your problem.

Take care,

What statement best explains the impact of the dogs
growling in this passage?
Read the excerpt from chapter 6 of Animal Farm.
All the animals remembered passing such resolutions:
or at least they thought that they remembered it. The
four young pigs who had protested when Napoleon
abolished the Meetings raised their voices timidly, but
they were promptly silenced by a tremendous growlind
from the dogs. Then, as usual, the sheep broke into
"Four legs good, two legs bad!" and the momentary
awkwardness was smoothed over. Finally Napoleon
raised his trotter for silence and announced that he
had already made all the arrangements.
It illustrates a growing sense of community among
the animals
It reveals new information about Napoleon in a small
amount of text.
It highlights the ways in which the animals are being
silenced and controlled.
It shows how Napoleon's leadership has progressed
in a short period of time.

Animal Farm

The statement that best explains the impact of the dogs (animal farm police force) growling in this passage is:

"It highlights the ways in which the animals are being silenced and controlled."

Growling, which is a low guttural sound in the throat, is a form of communication by predatory animals (for example, lion, bear, wolf, dog, cat, etc.).  It can communicate aggressive warning or hostility.  It can also be a sign of playful behaviors or mating tactics.  Predatory animals also use growling to indicate territorial protection.

The growling by the dogs was clearly an aggressive warning, depicting their hostility to the opposition raised by the four young pigs, who protested against Napoleon's leadership, especially the abolition of Meetings.  They were acting not differently from the actions of police men and women, who intimidate people to governmental submission.

Is what Shakespeare portrays in the play truly the love that we, as Christians, understand? If yes, how? If not, why not?

Answers

Answer:

No, it is not.

Explanation:

The kind of love portrayed in the story, "A midsummer night's dream", is not the Agape love that we understand as Christians. Eros, that is, romantic love was displayed by the characters in Shakespeare's story. This is different from the Christian love, Agape, which is pure, sacrificial, and unconditional.

Oberon, King of the Fairies, did not also display 'Agape love' when he was not pleased with Titania for not giving him the child. He was angry with her and revenged by putting a love portion in her eyes to fall in love with Bottom. That was not the Christian love that is not easily angered, keeps no record of wrong or self-seeking.
