As if merely ___________ according to his self-imposed rules weren’t strenuous enough…

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

As if merely subsisting according to his self-imposed rules weren’t strenuous enough…

Explanation:

The word "subsist" is a gerund that means sustenance, dependent, survival on one's own. In other words, it means the ability or capacity to support and survive by oneself on a minimal level.

The given line "as if merely subsisting according to his self-imposed rules weren't strenuous enough..." is from Jon Krakauer's "Into the Wild." The lines go like this-

As if merely subsisting according to his self-imposed rules weren't strenuous enough, Rosellini also exercised compulsively whenever he wasn't occupied with foraging. He filled his days with calisthenics, weight lifting, and running, often with a load of rocks on his back. During one apparently typical summer, he reported covering an average of eighteen miles daily.

Thus, the correct word for the blank in the line is "subsisting".

The faith cure man:

Was Martha ‘s approach for dealing with her dying daughter the right approach ?

Answers

Answer:

Martha's approach was correct.

Explanation:

"The faith cure man" tells the story of how Martha managed to find a cure for her daughter, even after it seemed that the child would not survive at all. All the doctors said that there was no chance of Martha's daughter surviving the illness she had and that there was no treatment that could help the child.

Martha's approach to this news was not to lose hope. For her, while her daughter was alive, she would not accept this diagnosis and would look for other ways to help the girl. For this reason, she came into contact with a man who healed through prayer and faith. Martha had great faith that her daughter would be healed and that is why she followed all the recommendations that this man presented. The recommendations were followed to the letter by Martha and this, in fact, healed her daughter. In this case, we can say that Martha was correct in maintaining hope and faith, being proactive and pursuing her goals.

Read this excerpt from "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi” by Rudyard Kipling.

Darzee was a feather-brained little fellow who could never hold more than one idea at a time in his head; and just because he knew that Nagaina's children were born in eggs like his own, he didn't think at first that it was fair to kill them. But his wife was a sensible bird, and she knew that cobra's eggs meant young cobras later on; so she flew off from the nest, and left Darzee to keep the babies warm, and continue his song about the death of Nag. Darzee was very like a man in some ways.

She fluttered in front of Nagaina by the rubbish heap, and cried out, "Oh, my wing is broken! The boy in the house threw a stone at me and broke it.” Then she fluttered more desperately than ever.

Nagaina lifted up her head and hissed, "You warned Rikki-tikki when I would have killed him. Indeed and truly, you've chosen a bad place to be lame in.” And she moved toward Darzee's wife, slipping along over the dust.

Based on the excerpt, which question would be the best interview question to ask Darzee’s wife?

How many of your eggs was Darzee protecting?
Do you like being married to Darzee?
How did you feel when Nagaina began to approach you?
Have you ever been friends with Nagaina?

Read the passage from chapter 5 of Animal Farm.

That evening Squealer explained privately to the other animals that Napoleon had never in reality been opposed to the windmill. On the contrary, it was he who had advocated it in the beginning, and the plan which Snowball had drawn on the floor of the incubator shed had actually been stolen from among Napoleon's papers. The windmill was, in fact, Napoleon's own creation. Why, then, asked somebody, had he spoken so strongly against it? Here Squealer looked very sly. That, he said, was Comrade Napoleon's cunning. He had seemed to oppose the windmill, simply as a maneuver to get rid of Snowball, who was a dangerous character and a bad influence. Now that Snowball was out of the way, the plan could go forward without his interference. This, said Squealer, was something called tactics. He repeated a number of times, "Tactics, comrades, tactics!” skipping round and whisking his tail with a merry laugh. The animals were not certain what the word meant, but Squealer spoke so persuasively, and the three dogs who happened to be with him growled so threateningly, that they accepted his explanation without further questions.

Prompt Read this student’s description: It was raining hard as Maria walked down the street. She felt cold and wet and was worried about being late. This description tells readers about the setting and character, but doesn’t help readers picture the scene. Strong writing shows readers what is happening through vivid description. Write a 3–5 sentence version of this rainy scene, but include descriptive language to help readers feel like they’re actually there. Try adding sensory details (what the character sees, hears, tastes, smells, or feels) and more specific verbs (like “strode” instead of “walked”) to show readers the scene. Bonus challenge: Now, challenge yourself to include even more detail in your description. Try to revise at least two words or phrases to make the scene more vivid for readers.

Answers

Answer:

raining hard = raining cats and dogs

walked= strolled

felt cold and wet = could feel the rain droplets as sharp glass pieces hitting her chilled face and numb hands even in the biting cold

worried about being late=what killed her inside was being late at that peculiar time.

Explanation:

It was raining hard as Maria walked down the street. She felt cold and wet and was worried about being late.

It was raining cats and dogs as Maria strolled down the street. She could feel the rain droplets as sharp glass pieces hitting her chilled face and numb hands even in the biting cold but what killed her inside was being late at that peculiar time.

The changed sentence has the same meaning as the original sentence but depicts more feelings of the girl both on the outside and the inside.

As its was mentioned , its raining very heavily and maria is strolling down the street and she was worried that she will be late and may be she will fall ill .

The Maria could feel the the droplet of the rain on her face through the sharp glasses and also start feeling the cold due to which her hands became numb and she was worried from the inside may be she will be late .

The Passage elaborated the feeling of Maria a she is very worried to being late even though she is feeling so cold .

Explanation:

Cause-effect is the type of text structure in which an author most likely use words. Hence, option C is appropriate.

What is the meaning of Author?

A writer of a book, essay, play, or other written piece is referred to as an author. A more comprehensive definition of the term "author" reads, "An author is 'the person who originated or gave existence to anything and whose authorship determines responsibility for what was created.'"

A writer is someone whose writing has been made public. People who write are considered writers when they create the concepts and content of their written work, in addition to creating published work. Because of this, the majority of authors write, yet not all writers are called authors.

An author may want to satirize a condition, inform the reader, persuade the reader, or amuse the reader.  Novelists are those who write or publish novels.

Hence, option C is correct.
