The king cobra instantly turned its head toward me and flared its hood. Was it about to strike? The interesting thing about the king cobra is that it is the smartest snake on earth. It can see 330 feet, and its venom contains powerful neurotoxins.

Is this passage foreshadowing or change in pacing ?????

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

This passage is a change in pacing because after the text says "The king cobra instantly turned its head toward me and flared its hood. Was it about to strike?" it suddenly change the continuity of the action and refers to some characteristics of the cobra.

It could have been "foreshadowing" if the text would have continued the original narrative of the preparation for the attack, until describing the attack or not.

However, the text changed in pacing when it wrote: "The interesting thing about the king cobra is that it is the smartest snake on earth. It can see 330 feet, and its venom contains powerful neurotoxins. This new information about the cobra's characteristics changed the narrative.

Jorge is factoring a quadratic expression. First he factors out the greatest common factor & then uses grouping.

Answers

Answer:

B. 6x^2 − 9x − 27

Explanation:

Here is the complete question :

Jorge is factoring a quadratic expression. First, he factors out the greatest common factor, and then he uses grouping. Which expression could be jorges expression?

A. 7x2 − 28

B. 6x2 − 9x − 27

C. 4x2 + 18x + 8

D. 24x2 + 2x

A quadratic equation is an equation that usually has a single variable and it is raised to the power of 2.

it is usually in the form : ax² + bx + c = 0

a, b,c are known numbers

x is unknown

looking through the options, it is only option b that satisfies the two steps Jorge carries out

1. he factors out the greatest common factor

6x2 − 9x − 27

this factor is 3. the equation then becomes 2x2 - 3x - 9

2, he uses grouping.

to group, determine the factors of 2x^2 x -9  = -18x^2 that adds up to -3x : they are -6x and +3x

grouping them now becomes : (6x^2 + 3x) (-6x -27)

Answer:

6x^2-9x-27

Answers

Answer:

Russian folk and revolutionary songs

Explanation:

In the excerpt of the book, "We shall not be Moved," we learn that the picketers sang, “O Dubinushka” and “Tortured and Enslaved” as they moved through the garment district in very cold weather. "O Dubinushka" is a song that was composed by Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov in 1905 during the Russian revolution. The title of the song in English means 'The little Oat Stick' and it tells the story of the revolution from the standpoint of a worker.

"Tortured and Enslaved" is another revolutionary song that describes the resilience of the people despite immense suffering.

Which can readers use to find the meaning of an unfamiliar word? Check all that apply.
root words
formal words
word endings
parts of speech
length of speech

Answers

Answer:

Root words

Explanation:

Sometimes when you found an unfamiliar word in a text you can use references of the context to infer the meaning of that one you missed, find comparisons and opposite if the text provides them.

Root words can readers use to find the meaning of an unfamiliar word.

Hence option A is correct.

What is Root words ?

A root word is the central part of a word that cannot be broken down into more significant components. A root is a morphologically straightforward unit in morphology that can be left unadorned or to which a prefix or a suffix can be attached. The base word, also known as the root word, is the main lexical unit of a word and a word family that holds features of semantic information and cannot be broken down into smaller components. Nearly all languages have content words that can only be made out of root morphemes. The word "root" may also refer to a word that has retained its lexical endings but lacks its inflectional endings in specific contexts. For instance, the inflectional root or lemma for chatters.

When reading a document, you can come across an unknown term and utilize context clues to deduce its meaning. You might also look for contrasts and analogies if the text has those.

Hence option A is correct.

Read the following passages:
But looking, I presently saw something stirring within the
shadow. ... Then something resembling a little gray snake,
about the thickness of a walking stick, coiled up out of the
writhing middle and wriggled in the air toward me and
then another."
-H. G. Wells, The War of the Worlds
Good heavens, something's wriggling out of the shadow
like a gray snake. Now it's another one, and another. They
look like tentacles to me.
-Orson Welles's radio adaptation of War of the Worlds
What choice does Welles make that causes the radio broadcast to feel like it
is happening live?
A. He changes the perspective to the first person.
B. He changes the verbs to present tense.
O C. He changes the details of the scene to be more frightening.
D. He changes the tone of the story to be less dramatic.

Answers

Answer: B. He changes the verbs to present tense.

Explanation:

In the adaptation, the biggest difference made was how he worded it to make it sound like it was happening in present tense.

Details were changed but not enough for it to be the main reason that the story felt like it was happening live so C. and D. are wrong.

The perspective was already in first person to begin with so A. is wrong as well.

The only option left is B. and we can see that he does change the story to be in present tense which is a good explanation as to how the story sounded like it was happening live.

I hope this helps!

The use of present tense verbs also creates a sense of urgency and tension, which heightens the suspense and makes the audience feel more engaged in the story. Thus, option B is correct.

What is the  present tense verb?

Present tense verbs are verbs that describe actions that are currently happening or habitual actions. In English, present tense verbs typically end in "-s" in the third person singular form (e.g. "he walks," "she talks," "it runs") and do not require an auxiliary verb (e.g. "is," "are," "am") to form the present tense.

Examples of present tense verbs in the present simple tense include "I walk," "you talk," "we run," "they eat." In the context of the passage, the use of present tense verbs in Orson Welles's radio adaptation of The War of the Worlds creates a sense of immediacy and makes the events feel like they are happening in real-time.

In sentence 10 (reproduced below), the writer wants to compare a specific difference between making pennies now and making pennies at an earlier time.
In 2001, it cost 0.79 cents to make a penny, but now, with metal costs increasing, the cost has changed in a noteworthy way.
Which of the following versions of the underlined text most effectively accomplishes this goal?
A. (as it is now)
B. the cost has soared to 1.8 cents per penny
C. economists worry that the penny is unsustainable
D. the United States Mint has looked into less expensive metals
E. the penny is made of only 2.5% copper

Answers

Answer:

B. the cost has soared to 1.8 cents per penny.

Explanation:

In the given sentence, the reproduction of the given sentence means changing the sentence or particular line into a more refined or better version. This will be in tune with maintaining the meaning of the replaced line or words while trying to 'change' it.

While the first part of the sentence provides the previous cost of making pennies, the second part is about the current cost. And in the given sentence, "the cost has changed in a noteworthy way" can be changed into "the cost has soared to 1.8 cents per penny" to make the point much clearer. This change will ensure that the readers know and understand the 'hike' in the cost of penny making, which also completes the comparison.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

The primary action or state being stated in a sentence is known as the simple predicate, commonly referred to as the verb or verb phrase. It is the portion of the sentence that describes the action or treatment of the subject. Usually, the simple predicate is a single verb or a verb phrase.
