Teddy shouted to the house: "Oh, look here! Our mongoose is killing a snake"; and Rikki-tikki heard a scream from Teddy's mother. His father ran out with a stick, but by the time he came up, Karait had lunged out once too far, and Rikki-tikki had sprung, jumped on the snake's back, dropped his head far between his fore-legs, bitten as high up the back as he could get hold, and rolled away. That bite paralysed Karait, and Rikki-tikki was just going to eat him up from the tail, after the custom of his family at dinner, when he remembered that a full meal makes a slow mongoose, and if he wanted all his strength and quickness ready, he must keep himself thin.

Answer:   B  and  D

Explanation:

In Paragraph 13, the following sentence is an example of which
literary device:
"The fire of anti-Semitism that reduced a once thriving
Hungarian Jewish population to a third of its size still smolders.
The smoke also rises in other parts of the world."
A. Simile
B. hyperbole
C. metaphor
D. euphemism

Answers

Answer:

D. Euphemism.

Explanation:

A euphemism is the use of words in such a way that it 'conceals' or expresses an embarrassing, harsh, cruel, or offensive event. This means that certain words are used to make or express things in a more presentable manner to substitute an offensive or embarrassing situation.

In the given sentence, euphemism is used to talk about the Holocaust, the gas chambers, and the mass murder of millions of Jews. Since this historical event is a huge heartbreak and offensive in nature for the Jewish people, using the words such as "fire of anti-Semitism", "smolders", "smoke" all try to present the event as humanely as possible without sounding offensive.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

Wolfshiem Jordan Baker Daisy's wedding Gatsby's mansion Based on the four items in Question #1, which three belong together (and WHY), and which does not belong

Answers

Answer:

I believe the three items that belong together are:

Jordan Baker

Daisy's wedding

Gatsby's mansion

Explanation:

"The Great Gatsby" is a novel by American author F. Scott Fitzgerald.

At a certain point in the story, the narrator Nick talks to Jordan Baker, a woman who is friends with Nick's cousin, Daisy. Jordan tells Nick that around five years before, Daisy met a young officer named Gatsby, and they fell in love. Gatsby left for the war, and Daisy, due to her position in life and expectations from her family, ended up getting engaged to Tom Buchanan.

Before her wedding, however, Daisy remembers how she felt about Gatsby and almost calls it all off. She changes her mind, and marries Tom. Five years later, Gatsby reappears. He is now a millionaire and lives in mansion chosen precisely because it is located across the bay from Daisy's house.

As we can see, there is connection between the three elements "Jordan Baker", "Daisy's wedding," and  "Gatsby's mansion". Wolfsheim is Gatsby's business partner, so to speak, but he does not directly connected to the other items here.

Write an essay explaining the importance of people appreciating what they have.

Answers

Answer:

hey

Explanation:

What is the importance of appreciation?

Feeling genuinely appreciated lifts people up. At the most basic level, it makes us feel safe, which is what frees us to do our best work. It's also energizing. When our value feels at risk, as it so often does, that worry becomes preoccupying, which drains and diverts our energy from creating value.

Appreciation is powerful. Appreciation is the act of giving something or someone their proper value, and everybody has value. The value in a relationship is important because it lets a person know where they stand, and what they mean to you; appreciation is a way of letting that person know what you value.

Answers

Answer:

b. The sharp cries and movements of the bird's family.

Explanation:

Ted Hudges' poem "The Laburnum Top" revolves around the relationship between the tree and a goldfinch bird. The poem delves into how the two depend on each other for their survival.

The laburnum was beautiful in the autumn but quiet. But all this changed after the arrival of the goldfinch birds, with the baby birds all noisily chirping around at the arrival of the mother with food. This is revealed in the lines:

"Then sleek as a lizard, and alert, and abrupt,

She enters the thickness, and a machine starts up

Of chitterings and a tremor of wings, and trilling

The whole tree trembles and thrills"

Thus, the correct answer is option b.

Many things that we use every day, like televisions, computers, refrigerators, and microwaves, require energy in order to work. We also rely on energy to make a car run and to heat water. All of the energy that we need to use must first be produced. Some sources of energy, such as gas and oil, can be harmful to the environment. Burning gas and oil can pollute the air. Also, gas and oil are limited, and we are using up the small amount that is left on the planet. This is why people should use alternative energy sources, which do not pollute the environment and are plentiful. Solar and wind energy are clean energy sources that should be used more often to reduce the pollution on Earth.

Which is an example of a adjectival phrase in the sentence "Ricardo felt great sadness for his little sister, whose big, brown eyes
leaked with tears after she dropped her ice cream."?
A)
Ricardo felt great sadness
B)
after she dropped her ice cream
C)
None of these are adjectival phrases
D)
whose big, brown eyes leaked with tears

Answers

Answer: A
I hope this helps you !

An adjective means to describe something.

C would be out of the question.

B would be a verb because it is an action, for example, run, jump, dropping your ice cream.

A is not describing, it is implying his feelings.

So we are left with D that is appropriately describing Ricardo's little sister.

So to put quite simply, you're answer would be:

D.
