Read the excerpt from “The Monkey's Paw.”
But her husband was on his hands and knees groping wildly on the floor in search of the paw. If he could only find it before the thing outside got in. A perfect fusillade of knocks reverberated through the house, and he heard the scraping of a chair as his wife put it down in the passage against the door. He heard the creaking of the bolt as it came slowly back, and at the same moment he found the monkey's paw, and frantically breathed his third and last wish.
The knocking ceased suddenly, although the echoes of it were still in the house. He heard the chair drawn back, and the door opened. A cold wind rushed up the staircase, and a long loud wail of disappointment and misery from his wife gave him courage to run down to her side, and then to the gate beyond. The street lamp flickering opposite shone on a quiet and deserted road.

How does Mrs. White’s reaction compare to that of Mr. White after the third wish has been granted?

She is heartbroken, and he is relieved.
She is sad, and he is angry.
She is anxious, and he is remorseful.
She is terrified, and he is expectant.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She is heartbroken, he is relieved.

Explanation:

It's harder for me to know without context, because they both seem pretty anxious, but my best educated guess would be the first one. After the wish has been made and the knocking ceases, Mr. White must be relieved and Mrs. White gave a "loud wail of disappointment," which sounds like heartbreak to me.

Choose the correctly punctuated sentence. On the display screen, was a soothing pattern of light and shadow. After the morning rains cease, the swimmers emerge from their cottages. Some first-year architecture students, expect to design intricate structures immediately. Shade-loving plants such as, begonias, impatiens, and coleus can add color to a shady garden.

Answers

Answer:

The sentence that is correctly punctuated is:

After the morning rains cease, the swimmers emerge from their cottages.

Explanation:

Let's look at each sentence individually to find the problems.

1. On the display screen, was a soothing pattern of light and shadow. --> The comma is separating the subject and the verb, which should never be done. This sentence is INCORRECT.

2. After the morning rains cease, the swimmers emerge from their cottages. --> This sentence is CORRECT. The comma is separating the ideas expressed in the different clauses.

3. Some first-year architecture students, expect to design intricate structures immediately. --> Again, we have a comma separating the subject and the verb. This is INCORRECT

4. Shade-loving plants such as, begonias, impatiens, and coleus can add color to a shady garden. --> When using "such as", we should not place a comma right before the first item to be listed. Therefore, there shouldn't be a comma before "begonias". This is INCORRECT

How does the plot structure contribute to the reader’s experience? How is foreshadowing incorporated?

Answers

Answer:

Plot structure can be vital in properly interpreting a passage.

Explanation:

Should the passage be disorganized the reader can be expected to be left confused. Should the passage be organized, you can expect the read to follow the story easily. Most, if not all stories should follow the routine exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and finally climax plot structure. Should this order be rearranged it could easily confuse the reader and lead to an uninteresting and puzzling story.

Hope this helps! Good luck!

Answer:

So, how does the "big idea" of your story make your experience reading more positive or negative? How does foreshadowing combine with your plot? How does it make the story more fun to read or add an aspect of apprehension or excitement/expectancy to your story?

I have a couple. I would say that this one is my favorite, I wrote back in 2015:

The first time I saw her, I actually didn’t even see her face. It was a little after 1 AM and I was on my way home from work. I decided to go down the beach way so I could see what the nightlife was like. I stepped into a pretty lively after-hours club, as I walked into the club I could see people dancing on the dance floor.

In the center, I could see this girl dancing with a beautiful head of hair. It caught my eye because it shimmered and glowed under the club’s pulsating lights.

I started towards her then remembered that I had classes first thing in the morning and that I really should be getting some sleep, so I reluctantly turned around and walked out of the club.

Three months later, I go into the same club ( I’ve been there several times since always hoping I’d see the girl with the gorgeous hair but never doing so) with my friends and are having drinks. A group of girls sit at the table next to us and my friends start chatting with them. After a few minutes, most of my friends are standing around their table. My friends convince most of the girls to go dancing with them. The rest of them surround the only girl at the table and I can hear them asking her to join the dancing and her polite rejections.

I walk over to the table and put my arms around two of my friends' shoulders and say:

“Come on gentlemen, let’s give the lady some breathing ….” And I finally see her, the shimmering hair girl! I get the guys to pursue other interests and start a conversation with her. We end up chatting until the club closes and we then go have breakfast.

We became fast friends and would go out to enjoy the summer nightlife from time to time. A couple of months later, we took our friendship to the next level and moved in together. About five months after we met, I asked her to marry me and a month later we were wed.

This coming year 2016, will be our twenty-third year together and four beautiful children ( most of whom are in college ) later, she remains the most gorgeous woman I have ever met. I love her more today than I thought I could ever love a person.

HELP!! What are three themes of to kill a mocking bird and what evidence shows it

Answers

Answer:

The novel To Kill a Mockingbird, written by Harper Lee in 1960, is an American literary classic, and recounts the life of a girl in the context of the Deep South of the early-1930s, when racial segregation towards African Americans was on the rise.

Thus, the three most important themes that this novel develops are:

- Racism and racial segregation, as the novel takes place in Alabama, which was one of the epicenters of segregation in the context of the Jim Crow Laws sanctioned after Reconstruction.

-Injustice, as Tom Robinson is accused and blamed for a crime he did not commit, for the simple reason of being a person with black skin.

-Ethics, as the girl's father, Atticus Finch, is a lawyer who defends African Americans in a totally hostile context towards them and their work, putting their reputation and even their safety at risk.

Screech! When a driver pushes on the brake pedal, it initiates a process that causes the
vehicle to stop in motion. We literally trust braking systems with our lives every time we get into
a vehicle or cross at a busy intersection. How does this life-critical process work? It begins when
the pedal is pushed. At this moment brake fluid is released into the braking mechanisms. As the
fluid collects, this creates a
leverage, which causes a friction to be applied. This friction will
create a force that will cause the wheels to stop and allow you to reach your destination safely

What is the meaning of Mechanism?

The method or technique by which a result is brought about or a goal is achieved. Machinery or general mechanical devices. the layout or arrangement of components in a machine, comparable equipment, or something similar. The mechanism of the clock is an example of a mechanical device or component.

A seesaw is a good illustration of a mechanism. As long as there is the equal force at either end, motion is distributed evenly across a seesaw. Levers are yet another illustration of a mechanism. A lever controls the quantity, direction, and strength of the movement of an object.

The body's organ systems run consistently in a certain way. "Physiological mechanisms" are the processes that underlie the operation of the body's organ systems. Another of the functional outputs of the brain, including in humans and other animals, is "behavior."

Which type of person is most likely to agree with James Green's argument?
A. Single mothers who work two jobs
O
B. Men who are raising their children
C. Women who are supporting their families
D. Women who depend on their husbands

Answers

Answer:

B. Men who are raising their children.

Explanation:

James Green is a Utah Republican who argued against the thought of women being given an equal pay just like men. For him, women should stay at home and take care of children. Furthermore, he said that if women were to have an equal pay with men, women will be more inclined to work thus, job competition will increase.

Among the choices above, it is only choice B who'd most likely agree with James Green because his argument is favorable for men. Considering that if women were to enter the workplace, there is a probability for the men's salary to become lower. If that happens, it'll surely be hard for the man to earn in order to support his children.

The people who are most likely to agree with James Green's argument are the men who are raising their children. Therefore, option B is the correct option.

Who is James Green?

James Green was born in January of 1977 and died on January 5, 1985. He was an American politician. He served as Speaker of the North Carolina House of Representatives from 1975 till 1976. He was also the 28th Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina from 1977 till 1985.

He believed that women should care for their children at home. Additionally, he claimed that if women and men received equal pay, women would be more likely to work, increasing competition for jobs. Thus, the males who are in charge of raising their kids are the ones who are most inclined to concur with James Green's viewpoint. Option B is therefore the best choice.
