3. Why do you think fire was so important to Greek people?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Greek fire was mainly used to light enemy ships on fire from a safe distance. What made the weapon so unique and potent was its ability to continue burning in water, which prevented enemy combatants from dousing the flames during naval wars.

Home

Hattie stepped off the screeching subway train and lugged her possessions onto the escalator. When she finally emerged from underground, she got to the sidewalk and looked at the landscape. She was used to flatness and green; the farm that they’d just sold had cattle grazing as far as the eye could see. There was nothing green in sight here as cement behemoths sprung out of the ground taller than the stalks of corn back in Iowa. People zipped in front of her with briefcases tucked to their sides as high heels clacked on the pavement. It was all so overwhelming, so loud, and Hattie put her hands over her ears to shut out the sounds of the taxi horns and the thousand different conversations. Her little sister Evelyn didn’t; she was trying to take it all in.

Her mother pulled out a map from her purse and held it in shaky hands. “According to this, our new home should be right here.”

Hattie traced her mother’s index finger to a building that was so high that she had to crane her neck to see the top.

“This?” Evelyn gasped.

Her father, the man who was never at a loss for words, didn’t say anything. He adjusted the weight of the three bags that contained most of the possessions they’d been able to bring on the three-hour plane journey that had uprooted them from their old lives and deposited them in New York City.

Her father struggled to open the heavy front door, and when they were inside, the smell of hundreds of different meals clashed in her nose: spaghetti, fried chicken, fish, and curry. They stood in front of a bank of elevators as Evelyn pushed the button for the seventeenth floor. When they entered what would be their new home, Hattie spun around in tiny circles as her father gave them the “grand” tour.

“Here is where you and Evelyn will sleep,” he announced. He pointed to a room that was half the size of the Iowa bedroom that was hers alone, the same Iowa bedroom where she’d had all her sleepovers and whose walls still showcased the crayon scribbles from when she was a toddler. She’d tried to scrub them clean, but they were more stubborn than she was, so they would be there for the new family that would be moving in soon.

Evelyn tried to sound excited. “We get to share a room!”

Hattie was grateful for her younger sister, for the way that she could always look at the bright side of things. Hattie couldn’t say anything in response—she’d been speechless for most of the trip. Instead, she followed her father down the hallway that was narrow enough for one person to fit through, maybe two if they squeezed shoulder to shoulder.

“And here is where your mom and I will be.” She could hear the forced excitement in her father’s voice for a move that he didn’t want to make either. But they’d had to sell the farm, and when this opportunity presented itself, there had really been no choice.

The tour was over as soon as it started—tiny kitchen, one bathroom, boxy living room. The four of them would be sharing an apartment that was smaller than the drafty old kitchen in the farmhouse.

Without a word, they grabbed boxes and started about the business of unpacking in rooms that were inches away from one another rather than feet. Hattie walked over to a dirty square window in her new shared bedroom. She wiped it clean, hoping to see something that would remind her of Iowa, but the window only looked out onto more concrete and glass. A wave of sadness washed over her—the first crack in the numbness that she’d been feeling for the past month since she found out about the move. She turned her back and lowered her head so Evelyn wouldn’t see her, but then the sobs came, each louder than the previous one.

There was a hand on her shoulder. She wanted to put the smile back on because she knew it would be better for Evelyn and everyone else that way, but she couldn’t summon it now. She turned around and saw her blurry sister through tear-filled eyes. In front of her face, Evelyn was holding a folded-up picture of the whole family in front of the farmhouse.

“I miss it too,” Evelyn began, “but we don’t have to forget it.”

Together, they taped the picture to the corner of the bedroom window so they could see it whenever they wanted. Hattie pulled Evelyn close, knowing that a place would never be as important as the people in it.

Which line provides evidence that Rainsford’s actions are justified because Zaroff was unlikely to let him go?


A)The general sucked in his breath and smiled. "I congratulate you," he said. "You have won the game."


B)"Get ready, General Zaroff."


C)"Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed."


D)He had never slept in a better bed, Rainsford decided.
The answer is C

Answers

Answer:

The answer is indeed letter C. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed."

Explanation:

Zaroff and Rainsford are characters in Richard Connell's short story "The Most Dangerous Game." They are both dexterous hunters who have no empathy for their prey. The one difference between them is that Rainsford hunts animals, while Zaroff hunts men.

Rainsford becomes Zaroff's brand new game. By the end of the story, he has managed to escape the forest and enter Zaroff's house unnoticed. Once Zaroff enters his own bedroom, Rainsford appears. Zaroff had promised to let Rainsford go if he managed to remain alive for three days after the hunt started. However, even though he admits Rainsford has won, he does not intend to let him go. This is what he says:

C. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed."

Zaroff is confident he will kill Rainsford and feed him to his dogs. Rainsford has no choice but fight and kill Zaroff to guarantee his own survival. That is what he does.

Answer:

C. “Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed.”

Why are the Putnams so eager to assume that the children are ill because they are bewitched?

Answers

Answer:

The number of children who have diedThe need to blame something for their deaths

Explanation:

In The Crucible, the Putnams have lost seven children with an eight, Ruth, very sick. They think this to be very unusual because it is just too many children to have died from the same illness.

Mr. Putnam rules genetics out as a factor by referring to the large family he came from where he had ten brothers which meant to him that his genes were strong enough for his children to stay alive.

Another reason was the need to blame the deaths of the kids on something especially for Mrs. Putnam who kept seeing her children die. She needed to blame something to feel better and witchcraft was an easy factor.

TRAINING YOUR DOG TO WALK ON A LEASH

Start with your dog standing at your left side. With several treats enclosed in your left hand, hold your left hand right in front of your dog’s nose (within 1 inch of it). Say “Let’s walk,” and walk in your intended direction. Every few seconds, pop a small treat into your dog’s mouth and praise her for walking along at your pace. You’ll need to frequently reload your hand with treats from your left pocket or from a treat pouch attached to your waist. If she pulls ahead or to the side, immediately stop. Get your dog’s attention by calling her name again. Ask her to sit, and praise her when she does. Then put the treat-loaded hand back in front of her nose and start walking again. Go a little bit farther every day that you practice. After at least a week of daily practice with lured walking, stop luring her along with your treat-loaded hand, and instead just carry your empty left hand in a natural position at your waist with elbow bent. Say “Let’s walk,” and reward her, about every other step you take, with a treat that you get from your left pocket or waist treat pouch. When she can walk along without pulling for several minutes, begin gradually increasing—over many daily training sessions—the number of steps you go in between treats so that your dog is walking longer distances between rewards. Reward her every other step at first, then every 5 steps, then every 10, and so on. Eventually, you should be able to walk with your hand comfortably at your side, periodically (every minute or so) reaching into your pocket to grab a treat to reward your dog.
According to the information in this list of instructions, which can be said to be true if things go according to plan?
A) The dog will grow more and more docile as her training progresses.
B) The dog will require shorter and shorter walks as her training progresses.
C) The owner will need to carry fewer and fewer treats, as the dog's training advances.
D) The owner will eventually not have to bring a leash at all, and the dog will learn to walk on her own. ​

What's the difference between vague and precise verbs?
Precise verbs are easier to say out loud.
Precise verbs are longer words.
Precise verbs are easier to spell.
Precise verbs are easier to imagine.

Answers

The correct answer is Precise verbs are easier to imagine

Explanation:

Precise verbs differ from vague verbs because these refer to very specific actions or states. For example, the verbs "mutter" or "crawl" are precise verbs because these refer to very specific actions. On the other hand, the verb "move" is vague because this does not explain how the movement occurs. Moreover, precise verbs allow the reader to imagine precisely the action described, and therefore are easier to imagine and are more suitable to create precise descriptions.
