HURRY ASAP) What does the descriptive language in this passage
help readers to visualize?
Read the excerpt from The Call of the Wild.
A poor substitute for food was this hide, just as it had
been stripped from the starved horses of the cattlemen
six months back. In its frozen state it was more like
strips of galvanized iron, and when a dog wrestled it
into his stomach it thawed into thin and innutritious
leathery strings and into a mass of short hair, irritating
and indigestible.
O how dry and tough the meat is
O how freezing the weather is
O how thin and sick the horses are
O how hungry the cattlemen are

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

O How dry and tough the meat is .

Explanation:

Descriptive language is the use of certain words that gives a clear and more descriptive image of what is being discussed or talked about. It provides in-depth detail about how something looks.

In the given passage from Jack London's "The Call of the Wild", the descriptive language shows how dry and tough the meat is. This is evident from the phrases like "In its frozen state it was more like strips of galvanized iron" and how hard it must have been, considering the narrator's comment that "when a dog wrestled it into his stomach it thawed into thin and innutritious leathery strings and into a mass of short hair, irritating and indigestible."

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

Read the passage. What is a similarity between the narrator and her best friend, Karen?

Karen and I had been best friends since first grade. But I was a little jealous of her. Karen always seemed smarter and prettier than everyone. One day, we both put our names in for a dance contest. I practiced hard for weeks. I wanted to win the dance contest and beat Karen. On the day of the contest, I went on stage. I danced like I’d never danced in my life. The crowd clapped loudly. Then it was Karen’s turn. She missed some steps and even lost her balance at one point. I knew something was wrong—Karen was no klutz. I ended up winning the contest, but that didn’t even matter to me anymore. After the contest, I ran to Karen and asked her what was wrong. Karen told me that she had been dancing with a sprained ankle. I asked her why she did it. Karen looked ashamed. Then she said, “Because I wanted to beat you and prove that I’m just as good as you!” I was shocked. Here I was so jealous of her, and she wanted to beat me so badly that she went on stage with a sprained ankle!

Karen and the narrator both enter the contest for fun.

I need some ideas. I need to write a short story about why people feel ashamed to be part of the LGBTQ+ community for english. Needs to be between 500-1000 words, or just give me idea on how I should start or something. Will mark brainliest.

Answers

Answer:

I cant give you the whole thing but an idea

Explanation:

People are ashamed to be part of the LGBTQ+ community because in some countries its against the law, its against some religions for example Christianity. Some people don't have accepting family and might be kicked out of the house for being part of the LGBTQ+ community

Answer:

fear of rejection, internalized homo/transphobia, and illegalization of homosexuality/transgenderism in certain countries are all good talking points

Explanation:

i'm sure that the third point is kind of obvious; if someone were to be openly lgbtq+ in a state were they aren't legally allowed to be proud, they could be imprisioned or killed.

though it may not be illegal worldwide, that doesn't mean that everyone who lives somewhere where it's legal to be lgbtq+ is accepting. people may be scared of getting rejected upon coming out. this could be losing friendships/romantic partners, getting kicked out by one's family, or becoming ostracized by society.

when one is in an environment that teaches them that it isn't okay to be lgbtq+, they are not going to feel happy with themself upon the realization that they may be gay/trans. they may have been taught at a young age that lgbtq+ people are gross or wrong in someway, making them refuse to accept that not only they are lgbtq+, but that is an okay thing to be.

What did hrothgar offer as recompense for Beowulf’s heroism in offering to help rid the west Danes of Grenada

Answers

Just correcting the spelling:

What did Hrothgar offer as recompense for Beowulf’s heroism in offering to help rid the west Danes of Grendel?

Answer:

Hrothgar offered Beowulf the bond of kinship and treasures.

Explanation:

"Beowulf" is one of the most famous epic poems of all time. It takes the name of its main character, the hero Beowulf, who fights and defeats three monsters: Grendel, Grendel's mother, and a dragon. Beowulf is "hired" by king Hrothgar to get rid of those monsters, and is offered an incredible reward.

Once Beowulf has killed Grendel and his mother, he is rewarded with the bond of kinship, a sword, an embroidered banner, breast-mail, and an adorned helmet. Hrothgar also gives Beowulf eight horses with gold bridles, and gives his men treasures and gold.

16. If anyone receive into his house a runaway male or female slave of the court, or of a freedman, and does not bring it out at the public proclamation of the major domus, the master of the house shall be put to death.

Answers

 Explanation:

If you bring a runaway slave into your home and don't report it, the head of the household will be put to death. I'm guessing that during the time, kidnapping people for  more labor work to be done was illegal, especially when it was done without permission by The Public Proclomation of the Major Domus.

The Way Society Changed:

Before the law was passed, this would be done constantly to keep possessions they didn't want to trade or to save currency (whatever currency was at the time). After it was passed, people had to start notifying the PPMD about the enslavements so their heads won't get hacked off.

Lens Quotation: "Character is what you are in the dark." -Dwight Lyman Moody

Answers

Answer:

Like many Hobbits, Bilbo Baggins does not like adventures, as it is not in their "nature." But Gandalf comes by to prove otherwise. During the novel, Bilbo is recruited by Gandalf to help a pack of Dwarves reclaim their lost home. When Bilbo accepted this journey, we are already seeing Bilbo's true colors coming through. Bilbo scurries along to meet the rest of his party as the entirety of Bag End shuns him. A great example of Bilbo's character in the dark is when he is literally in the dark. His quick thoughts are what saves him from being Gollum's next meal when he falls into his cave. Bilbo saved his own life that day because of his witty puzzles and quick actions against Gollum. At heart, Bilbo is an adventurer, just like the Took side of his family. With the help of a couple of new friends, Bilbo was able to show his "true character in the dark" to the world
