Some men on horseback rode up, shouting and sweating; two of them dismounted, while the other hung back to watch the horses.
"We want food! Give us eggs, milk, beans, anything you've got! We're starving!"
The speaker wore chevrons on his arm, his companion red stripes on his shoulders.
"Whose place is this, old woman? Of course it's not empty. How about the light and that child there? Look here, confound it, we want to eat, and quick too. We’re coming in."
"Tell me what they call this ranch, woman?" the sergeant asked.
"Limon," the woman replied curtly, carrying wood to the fire and fanning the coals.

How does the setting influence characterization in the text?

A.
The setting causes the characters to endure cold temperatures.
B.
The setting causes the characters to have difficulty riding the horses.
C.
The setting causes the characters to have difficulty finding food.
D.
The setting causes the characters to use overly polite manners.

Answers

Answer: C.  The setting causes the characters to have difficulty finding food.

Explanation:

The setting infers that the characters in question are looking for food to eat. First the men who came in on horseback ask for food and say they are starving which means that they have had difficulty finding food.

Then the notice that the ranch may not have food as well when they say that there is no way the place can be empty and lacking of food seeing as there was a child there. This means that the woman herself wants food so the setting is such that the characters seem to all have difficulty in finding food.

Ramses II ruled over Egypt from the years 1279 BCE to 1213 BCE. A famous statue was erected to him during his reign, and the statue was discovered by archaeologists in the early 1800s CE. Over time, it had fallen and broken into pieces. In 1817, the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley was inspired to write a poem about a statue of an ancient ruler.

Read the poem "Ozymandias" by Percy Bysshe Shelley

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert … near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings;
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Once you have read the text, examine the following depiction of what the statue of Ramses II would have looked like during his reign.

Image depicts a large sand-colored stone sculpture of Ramses II. He stands several feet tall in an erect posture, clenched hands at his sides, staring straight ahead.
© Stephen & Donna O'Meara / Photo
Researchers / Universal Images Group
/ Image Quest 2018

The sculptor of Ramses II and Shelley both depict an ancient ruler, but there are details in visual art that cannot be communicated through text. In a short response of at least five sentences, describe at least one detail clearly shown in the sculpture that is not evident in the poem. Include at least one specific reference to each work in your response.

Answers

In her poem, Shelly said that this king had a cold command. She also said "The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed" which suggests that this king often looked down on others, and felt superior. On the other hand, she states how passionate the sculptor was and how the pedestal states, "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings; Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!". Using both of these resources we can determine that the sculptor sees the king as a very powerful figure, and that he looks up to and cares about this ruler. In other words, Shelly believes that rulers are harsh and cold, while the sculptor of this statue believes that rulers are great and powerful.

I just took the test, don't know what I got on this question yet tho, but here is my answer.

Answer:

All of this is based on current knowledge. The passage written by Shelley was made over 400 years after Ramses II had died. So, Shelley had very limited ways to find out how Ramses II actually ruled. His perception of Ramses II was a weak ruler of Egypt. However, the sculpture (which I have attached) clearly demonstrates a position of power. The connotation the sculpture was intended to give off was positive. And just simply the fact the sculpture was created signifies that the person looked up to Ramses II as an influential figure.

Explanation:

Subject-verb agreement refers to the use of the same number for the subject and the verb used. In other words, the subject-verb agreement means the subject and the verb are the same in number, meaning a singular subject will have a singular verb, a plural subject will have a plural verb, etc.

In the given sentence, the subject is "neither of my little brothers". This means it is a singular subject, referring to none of the brothers. Thus, according to the subject-verb agreement, the verb will be in the singular too.

Therefore, the correct sentence will be

paragraph of 20 lines on प्रार्थना का महत्व in hindi​

Answers

प्रार्थना मनुष्य की श्रेष्ठता की प्रतीक है क्योंकि यह उसके और परमात्मा के घनिष्ठ संबंधों को दर्शाती है । हरएक धर्म में प्रार्थना का बड़ा महत्व है । सभी धर्म-गुरुओं, ग्रंथों और संतों ने प्रार्थना पर बड़ा बल दिया है । उन्होंने प्रार्थना को मोक्ष का द्वार कहा है ।

प्रार्थना में परमेश्वर की प्रशंसा, स्तुति, गुणगान, धन्यवाद, सहायता की कामना, मार्गदर्शन की ईच्छा, दूसरों का हित चिंतन आदि होते हैं । प्रार्थना चुपचाप, बोलकर या अन्य किसी विधी से की जा सकती है । यह अकेले और सामूहिक, दोनों रूपों में होती है । यह ध्यान के रूप में या किसी धर्म ग्रंथ के पढ़ने के रूप में भी हो सकती है ।

प्रार्थना में माला, जाप, गुणगान पूजा संगीत आदि का सहारा लिया जाता है । बिना किसी ऐसे साधन के भी प्रार्थना की जा सकती है । प्रार्थना करने की कोई भी विधि अपनाई जा सकती है, और सभी श्रेष्ठ हैं । प्रार्थना एक तरह से परमेश्वर और भक्त के बीच बातचीत है । इस में भक्त भगवान को अपनी सारी स्थिति स्पष्ट कर देता है कुछ छिपाता नहीं ।

इसमें जितनी सच्चाई, सफाई, तन्मयता और समर्पण-भाव होगा, वह उतना ही प्रभावकारी होगी । प्रार्थना कभी भी और कहीं भी की जा सकती है, परन्तु प्रात: और सायं नियमित रूप से करना बहुत लाभदायक रहता है । प्रार्थना का स्थान भी शांत, स्वच्छ, मनोरम, और खुला होना चाहिये ।

यह ऐसा होना चाहिये कि ध्यान नहीं बंटे और जहां शोरगुल न हो । मंदिर, मस्जिद, चर्च आदि इसके लिए अच्छे स्थान माने जाते हैं । प्रकृति की गोद में भी, कहीं भी, प्रार्थना करने में बड़ी सहायता मिलती हैं । प्रार्थना में मन की एकाग्रता बहुत आवश्यक है ।

इस प्रकार प्रार्थना का मनोवैज्ञाकि महत्व भी कम नहीं है । मन की शांत करने, बुद्धि को एकाग्र करने, संस्कारों को श्रेष्ठ बनाने और आत्मविश्वास प्रापत करने का यह एक अनुपम साधन है । यह एक ऐसी आध्यात्मिक क्रिया है जिसमें धैर्य, ऊर्जा, पवित्रता, चरित्र की दृढ़ता जैसे गुण विद्यमान हैं । इसके द्वारा दूसरों का भी बड़ा भला किया जा सकता है । प्रार्थना के बल पर संतों, साधुओं, पैगम्बरों, आदि ने वह सब कुछ कर दिखाया है जो असंभव लगता है ।

Answers

Answer:

The elaboration of the oo7 conversation style was carried out thanks to the help of it, which caused a revolution in our lives.

Explanation:

A sentence that has a passive voice is one where the subject undergoes the action presented by the verb and does not perform the action presented by the verb. As you may already know, the verb is the word that promotes an action or a state, while the subject is the term that allows the action of the verb to happen, promoting it in some way. In this case, in the sentence shown in the question above, we can see that the verb is the word "help" and the subject is the word "it" in the first sentence. "It" is promoting the action represented by the verb "help," which makes this sentence a active voice sentence. To transform it into the passive voice, we must rewrite this sentence, making "it" start to suffer the action of this verb. This can be done as follows:

"The elaboration of the oo7 conversation style was carried out thanks to the help of it, which caused a revolution in our lives."
