HURRY!!! Which words contribute most to the excerpt’s pace? ""imaginary"" and ""aside"" ""sash"" and ""swords"" ""slashing"" and ""lunged"" ""Goeman"" and ""Manjiro""
This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Read the excerpt from Heart of a Samurai. Goemon jumped up. "Agreed," he said, jamming his "knife" into his sash and slashing at Manjiro’s "sword." Their imaginary swords clashed and clattered as they lunged or leaped aside to avoid being hit. Which words contribute most to the excerpt’s pace?
A. "imaginary" and "aside"
B. "sash" and "swords"
C. "slashing" and "lunged"
D. "Goeman" and "Manjiro"
Answer:
The words that contribute most to the excerpt's pace are C. "slashing" and "lunged".
Explanation:
When we think of pace, we think of rhythm, of moving fast, slow, with regularity, with cadence, etc. The words an author uses help readers feel the pace of what is being described more intensely. If the characters are acting or moving fast, or if conflicts are developing slowly, the only way for readers to visualize that is through the author's word-choice. In the case of the excerpt we are studying here, we can say the writer establishes a fast pace through the use of the words "slashing" and "lunged". Both words imply rapidity of movement, celerity, quickness and, for that reason, has the readers imagining the scene in a vivid, accelerated manner.

4. On pages 23 and 24, Katie says:
“Last night I dreamed of a big wave, like this sculpture I saw a couple of years ago at the Rodin Museum when we took a trip to Paris for my parents’ 15th anniversary.”
“Back upstairs, I take out a photo of me and my parents in Paris. I stuck it under my mattress when the glass in the frame broke in the earthquake.”
“. . . a row of sharpened pencils, a stapler, a ruler, a silver Eiffel Tower paperweight she bought from a souvenir shop in Paris.”
Why does Katie mention Paris so often? What do you think it represents to her?
Answer: not exact, but the reason why Katie mentions Paris so often is probably where she was born. What it means to her may be family or culture.
Explanation:
I don’t know this story very well, but writers commonly use repetition to get a point out there. for example: in Danganronpa V3, Kokichi *constantly* lies, and everyone knows that. repetition can make the fact that he is a liar more clearer. with more analyzation, it could also get Kokichi’s view out there, especially HIS view on lying.
Apply this to Katie, she mentions Paris a lot. she talks about her family and certain events too, she even have souvenirs. We can infer that her parents were born in Paris, or that she was born there as well. What this means to her is that Paris symbolizes family to her.
This is just my interpretation though!

Read the excerpt from Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby.
I lived at West Egg, the—well, the less fashionable of the two, though this is a most superficial tag to express the bizarre and not a little sinister contrast between them. . . . Across the courtesy bay the white palaces of fashionable East Egg glittered along the water, and the history of the summer really begins on the evening I drove over there to have dinner with the Tom Buchanans.
Based on these descriptions, what inference can be made about the difference between West Egg and East Egg?
West Egg is the cheaper part of town, where renters or middle class/lower middle class people can live. East Egg is for the rich, for those with power and money.
Renters and middle-class and lower-middle-class residents can live in West Egg because it is a less expensive area of the city inference can be made about the difference between West Egg and East Egg.
What is The Great Gatsby?Because ultimately individuals who fantasize do not realize their objectives, The Great Gatsby is melancholy. Fitzgerald wants us to understand, however, that seeking an undeserving goal will result in tragedy rather than that daydreaming will go to grief.
East Egg is only for the wealthy, powerful, and wealthy-connected. Under the airy and dreamlike exterior, the affluent citizens of East Egg conceal their undesirable traits. The people of West Egg are highly educated because they've only recently bought the wealth that was being portrayed.

Which best explains why a writer might revise the second sentence to use passive voice?
Answer:
The reason why a writer might revise the second sentence to use passive voice ratther than active, is to emphasize or highlight the object that is being described.
Explanation:
For instance if the sentence is: A very famous paintor MichelAngelo sculped the statue of David in Italy. This sentence here is written in an active voice, because the action is located in the paintor.
If the writer wants to enphasize in the importance of the statue, because it is such an important and well known one, the writer could change from active to passive.
David´s statue was built by the famous paintor Michelangelo.

add “Consequently,” before “Greg”
add “Still,” before Greg”
add “Yet” before “Greg”
add “However,” before “Greg”
