Why is the word “They” capitalized in the following sentence? Most shoppers have the same goal: They want to find quality goods

at low prices. It is the first word in a title. The information after the colon is a complete sentence. It is a conjunction with four or more letters. It is a proper adjective.

"<span>The information after the colon is a complete sentence" is the correct answer. Although many people do not capitalize the first letter after a colon this is technically incorrect. </span>

Which line in this excerpt from Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales contradicts the claim made in the third line that the prioress sp
12345 [234]

From Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales excerpt that contradicts the claim made in the third line that the prioress speaks fluent French is "For French of Paris was not hers to know."

In the General prologue, Chaucer satirizes several characters from various classes and professions. Beginning with the highest class to lower. The first character whom Chaucer introduces is the Prioress who is a nun. She is the first among the female to be described, the first question that evokes in the reader's mind is that such higher religious clergy doesn't take a vow of leading a simple life? Hence, Chaucer satirizes the church, as the members of the church belonged from the upper class. The prioress took advantage from the poor for her own good. She was very well '<em>dainty</em>' and was well-dressed. Being known as <em>"Madame Eglantyne"</em>, she was so pretentious that she hardly knew any words of French.

Pressed tightly against one another, in an effort to resist the cold, our heads empty and heavy, our brains a whirlwind of decay
nikdorinn [45]

Explanation:

1. Adjective that is best describing the atmosphere in this passage is ''never-ending''. It is showing the readers how the people are feeling about their situation which is also causing a never-ending night. The night was growing longer because of their numb minds and they were questioning themselves when they will die.

2. ''Our minds numb with indifference.'' is the excerpt from the passage that is revealing the atmosphere because the people in the story are indifferent. They are not afraid of death anymore because they know that they will die sooner or later. They are only questioning themselves when will that happen but they are also knowing that it does not matter when. They don't feel any emotions because they had surrendered.

3. This numb atmosphere of the story is showing us the meaning of it. People had found themselves in cold place and they stick together in order to survive the coldness. Their heads are heavy and they are remembering things. The author is showing that in those difficult situation people get indifferent and they can stop worrying about life. At the end of the passage, we can see that their thoughts are not good because they are making the situation even harder for them and causing never-ending night. The more they think, the more night is growing.

Imagine there was a shipwreck. You are stranded in a lifeboat with a tiger. Both of you are hungry and thirsty. You fear the tig
Triss [41]

Answer and Explanation:

You: I can tell by the look in your eyes that you're thinking of eating me.

Tiger: That's true. I am indeed.

You: Well, I'd like to advise you against that. If you eat me, your chances of surviving afterwards will diminish.

Tiger: I doubt that. If I eat you, I will gain strength. Consequently, I'll be able to survive for a few more days. That might be enough for a ship to show up and rescue me.

You: That reasoning is good, but flawed. Yes, you will gain strength that will last for a few days. However, if a ship does not show up in a few days, you will die. Fishing is not one of your abilities as a tiger, so you won't catch anything to eat after devouring me. Also, if a ship does show up, the crew may very well be afraid of taking you with them for fear that you might attack and eat them.

Tiger: I see... go on.

You: If you keep me alive, we will solve all of those issues. I can fish for the both of us. We'll both maintain our strength until a ship shows up, even if it takes long. When that happens, they will certainly take us in. I will vouch for you, letting them know you were civilized enough not to eat me. Therefore, they can trust you not to eat them.

Tiger: I see your point, and it is a good one. I promise not to eat you if you promise to keep your word.

You: I promise. We have a deal.

Read the excerpt from act 4, scene 3, of The Tragedy of Julius Caesar.
lesya [120]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>"How scaped am I killing when I crossed you so? / O insupportable and touching loss!" </em>

<em>"My heart is thirsty for that noble pledge. / Fill, Lucius, till the wine o', Roswell the cup." </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The tribunes of Marallus and Flavius led to the disruption of a gathering of the Roman citizens who wanted to celebrate the triumph of Caesar after he returned safely from the war. The victory was to marl the free game that Mark had taken part in. This made the arena stop Caesar, and he was warned that he should be informed about the Ides. Therefore Brutus and Cacius suspected the reactions of Caesar because of the public power he had held. And because of this, they had a fear that he will not be an emperor.
