Laughter shook the general. "How extraordinarily droll you are!" he said. "One does not expect nowadays to find a young man of the educated class, even in America, with such a naive, and, if I may say so, mid-Victorian point of view. It's like finding a snuff-box in a limousine. Ah, well, doubtless you had Puritan ancestors. So many Americans appear to have had. I'll wager you'll forget your notions when you go hunting with me. You've a genuine new thrill in store for you, Mr. Rainsford."
"Thank you, I'm a hunter, not a murderer."

We had trouble finding our way through the fog. Nights at sea were dark, but nights spent sailing through bad weather were exceptionally dark. It was when we looked up and saw the St. Elmo's fire burning around our mast that we knew we had to keep going. We were all amazed by this natural phenomenon caused by static electricity clinging to the ship's mast. It appeared to light our way in the blackest of nights, and, by its light, we fought against the storm and made our way into the marina. We all hoped that we'd never face something that scary again, but I know that if I must, I have Mother Nature's light giving me the power to persevere.
In this passage, the St. Elmo's Fire is a symbol of
A.
endurance because it boosts the sailors' strength.
B.
despair because it breaks the sailors' hearts.
C.
ignorance because it shows the sailors' neglect.
D.
kindness because it warms the sailors' bodies.
HELP ME PLEASE
In the passage, St. Elmo's Fire is a symbol of kindness because it warms the sailors' bodies. The correct option is D.
What is the passage about?The electric field at St. Elmo's fire allows the creation of plasma at the ends, which causes the characteristic luminosity of this object.
It is true that the electric field is stronger at the ends of the pointed objects, and that is the reason why these objects manage to accumulate large amounts of charge at their ends.
Often, this accumulation is so large that it allows the ends of sharp objects to remove electrons from atoms in the air. This process promotes the creation of plasma, which allows the visualization of luminosity at the ends of sharp objects, as it is possible to see in St. Elmo's fire.
Therefore, the correct option is D. kindness because it warms the sailors' bodies.

PARAGRAPH ANSWER: How is "The Fall of the House of Usher" a classic
Gothic Tale? What elements does Poe use to add to the suspense?
Remember, a Gothic Tale includes the following elements: 1. Set in a
haunted castle or house. 2. A damsel (girl) in distress. 3. An atmosphere
of mystery and suspense. 4. There is a ghost or monster. 5. The weather
is always awful. 6. Dreaming/nightmares. 7. Burdened male protagonist

Explanation: What makes the story a genuine gothic story is that it fulfills all the important elements, such as the hunted house (Usher's mansion), the damsel in distress (Usher's sister coming as a suffering soul from being buried alive), an atmosphere of mystery and suspense, (the narrator witnessing the strange behaviors of his childhood friend and the noises heard), a monster (the gothic fate that the characters possess), the awful weather (decaying trees and dark day), nightmares (Usher's paranoic attitude), and burdened male protagonist (the scared narrator).

Imagine that your friend does not know how to make inferences. How would you explain to them the steps to create good inferences?
Answer:
the best way I would explain it to them is by telling them to take an educated guess. And to use clues based on what they want to find out. for example they want to know what the word extrodinary means. so in order to find out what it means they have to read the sentence over and see how the word is being used. then they can make an inference and take a good guess.

In the 1800s, the United States was still a very young nation, trying to solidify its identity. The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain, a fast development of society following the introduction of machines. The United States was slower than Great Britain to fully embrace the changes. Yet key technological developments caused a rapid growth in American urban areas. Better farming methods and tools in the 1800s increased food production. Americans were able to grow enough food for their families as well as to sell. The abundance caused food prices to fall. The expansion of cotton and the growth of textile factories in northern states helped produce the first wave of American industry. More people turned to work in northern factories as a way to support their families. Thousands of immigrants to the United States also settled in or near port cities, looking for work. Even today, the need for work is a common reason people move to urban areas. As a result, cities grew in numbers of people and physical space. As more people and businesses moved in, they needed buildings for living and working. They needed ways to move around the city. We call this process urbanization. In 1820, the United States had only a few cities of 10,000 residents or more. About seven percent of U.S. residents lived in urban areas. The number of cities with more than 10,000 people grew quickly over the next 40 years, especially in the Northeast and Midwest. By 1860, about 20 percent lived in cities. Philadelphia and New York City were the most populated cities in 1860 and would soon reach one million residents. The urbanization of the United States quickened due to technology improvements. Without innovations in food production, the factories could not have grown so quickly. The trend quickened after 1860 and continued throughout the 21st century as well. By 2007, more Americans lived in or near cities than they did in rural areas.

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

Explanation:
Oedipus's actions were a direct result of him not knowing that it was his mother- how would he know? How could he possibly be at fault for not recognizing her? Since he did not know it was her, he is not at fault.
