The words in this excerpt give the description a gloomy tone.

Something is gloomy when it is dark, depressing, and presents very little life of hope.

Here, we are reading about a room or a house. So the term <em>gloomy</em> in this context would most probably have to do with the interior being old, worn-out, or poorly cared for. This is exactly what the words with negative connotations in this excerpt are conveying:

  • "musty", "peeling", "mutilated", and "warped" show a lack of maintenance,
  • "pungent smell" indicates a lack of cleanliness,
  • "dicolored" and "tarnished" suggest that the place is very old.

What are 2 different conflicts in the story “The Scarlet Ibis”
White raven [17]
The main conflict of "The Scarlet Ibis" by James Hurst is Brother's inability to deal with Doodle's disabilities: his concern more for himself than Doodle. When Doodle is born, Brother considers killing him because he is "not right." He was born when I was six and was, from the outset, a disappointment

Doodle and his brother helps show the theme of trying to meet the expectations of others and yourself can harm oneself. Additionally, Doodle struggles internally with his own expectations. He hopes to become more able for himself and others, but his body cannot keep up.

Nata [24]
The dictionaries are in alphabetical order so there really is not trick to looking in them. Also, we have Google so dictionaries aren’t really that helpful. Therefore, this question is kind of a scam. Which ever teacher gave you this is playing you. Haha.
