"Oh, mother," Arachne would answer. Then she would
go on weaving. She thought that her work was far more
important than sleep. In the morning, she always puffed
up with pride when she saw what she had made in the
dark.
The cloths she wove were very beautiful. In fact, they
were the best in all the land, and news of them traveled
fast. So, it was not long before folks showed up at
Arachne's door just to watch her work.
Answer:
folks showed up . . just to watch her work.
Explanation:
The lines "folks showed up . . just to watch her work" best predicts that Arachne might be a better weaver than Athena because it might mean that Athena, the goddess of handicraft, wisdom and warfare is less admired by people when the news of Arachne spread across the land.
Arachne who wove beautiful clothes became a sight which many wanted to see. Many people travelled from different places to get a glimpse of her weaving sidelining Athena and making her less important.

Read the excerpt from chapter 30 of The Awakening. "There are so many inquisitive people and institutions abounding" said Arobin, "that one is really forced as a matt of convenience these days to assume the virtue of an occupation if he has it not." Monsieur Ratignolle stared a lit and turned to ask Mademoiselle Reisz if she considered the symphony concerts up to the standard which had be set the previous winter. What does Monsieur Ratignolle's reaction to Arobin's remark reveal about the difference in the men's characters? Monsieur Ratignolle is a married man who loves his wife deeply, while Arobin cannot fathom such devotion. Monsieur Ratignolle turns from the conversation because he is envious of Arobin's carefree attitude. Monsieur Ratignolle does not have Arobin's sense of humor and is therefore deeply offended by him. Monsieur Ratignolle is a traditional family man, unable to understand Arobin's unconventional choices.
Answer:
Monsieur Ratignolle's reaction to Arobin's remark reveals:
D. Monsieur Ratignolle is a traditional family man, unable to understand Arobin's unconventional choices.
Explanation:
In Kate Chopin's "The Awakening", characters Monsieur Alphonse Ratignolle and Alcée Arobin seem to function as each other's foil. That is, they are each other's opposite, one seeming to enhance the qualities of the other precisely because of such difference.
Arobin is a womanizer - a Don Juan type. He has a more carefree way of viewing and facing life. As a matter of fact, he becomes the main character's - Edna - lover. On the other hand, Monsieur Ratignolle is a role model of character and faithfulness. He and his wife seem to represent the ideal married couple. Ratignolle is regarded by his community as an example of integrity.
With that in mind, we can easily choose letter D as the best option: Monsieur Ratignolle is a traditional family man, unable to understand Arobin's unconventional choices.
Answer:
it is D.

How old is Elie when he observes a son kill his own father for bread?
Answer:
In chapter 7, the prisoners are packed tightly together into a train car heading towards Buchenwald, and Elie witnesses a son kill his father over a piece of bread. A few days into their journey to Buchenwald, the train stops in a German town, and a worker throws a piece of bread into one of the train cars. Elie recalls watching dozens of starving prisoners fight violently for the piece of bread. German spectators begin to gather and start throwing more pieces of bread into the wagons to watch the emaciated prisoners fight among each other to grab the bread.
Elie recalls seeing an old man inconspicuously grab a piece and put it into his mouth. Before the old man can swallow the bread, another younger man suddenly strikes him. The old man collapses and begins crying for his son to stop beating him and tells his son that he is willing to share the bread. Unfortunately, the old man's son beats his father to death and searches his body for more food. Shortly after killing his father, two prisoners beat the son to death.
This horrific, violent story reveals the fragility of human nature. The son's ruthless actions reveal that humans are willing to do anything to survive and meet their primitive needs. In the midst of extreme hunger, humans disregard relationships and social standards to satisfy themselves. This incident reveals that humans are debased beings, who are willing act savagely towards anyone in order to survive at all costs.

Indirect characterization of Jen finch in any chapter 1-31
Answer:
Methods of characterization become even more important when the author needs to show a character's growth. Let's take a look at Atticus' son, Jem Finch. Jem grows from a game-playing child to a mature teenager questioning and struggling with the hypocrisies of the adults around him. His actions and words show the evolution of his maturity.
At first, Jem perpetuates the rumors and superstitions surrounding the Radley household:
Jem gave a reasonable description of Boo: Boo was about six-and-a-half feet tall, judging from his tracks; he dined on raw squirrels and any cats he could catch, that's why his hands were bloodstained - if you ate an animal raw, you could never wash the blood off.
In telling Atticus that Dill has run away from home, Jem shows the ability to weigh the consequences of a secret:
Dill's eyes flickered at Jem, and Jem looked at the floor. Then he rose and broke the remaining code of our childhood. He went out of the room and down the hall. 'Atticus,' his voice was distant, 'can you come here a minute, sir?' [...] Jem was standing in a corner of the room, looking like the traitor he was. 'Dill, I had to tell him,' he said. 'You can't run three hundred miles off without your mother knowin'.
Finally, Jem shows maturity in critically thinking about the underbelly of prejudice:
If there's just one kind of folks, why can't they get along with each other? If they're all alike, why do they go out of their way to despise each other? Scout, I think I'm beginning to understand something. I think I'm beginning to understand why Boo Radley's stayed shut up in the house all this time... it's because he wants to stay inside.

Read the following passage. Write the examples of simile that you find.
I had a wonderful time with my family on our camping trip to the lake. The lake was as warm as a Jacuzzi, so my brother and I swam every day. After swimming, Dad took us fishing in a rowboat and we caught five trout. We moved along the lake like a sloth, but we were happy to be together. In the evenings we would watch the stars glitter like Christmas lights.
Answer:
The lake was as warm as a Jacuzzi We moved along the lake like a sloth the stars glitter like Christmas lights.Explanation:
The simile is the figure of speech that compares one thing to another in order to add up to the imagination of the description and make it more vivid. It highlights the certain characteristics of one thing to another using the words “as” and “like”
The parts of the passage that use the simile are:
The lake was as warm as a Jacuzzi – the author tries to underline the warmth of the water with this analogy by comparing it to the experience in the spa. We moved along the lake like a sloth – with this simile, the author is describing the way they moved in the both, underling that they were very slow. the stars glitter like Christmas lights. - author compares the stars to Christmas lines to put the accent on their brightness and shiness.
