Lilliput and Blefuscu are two fictional island nations and they are also one of the main things of the novel.

  • <u>The Gulliver was the one who made all the preparations for the war between Blefuscu and Lilliput islands.</u>  First preparation, was when he was <u>laying behind a hillock at the coast where Blefescu people will pass by. He was the one who knew everything about the sea and how deep it is.</u> Secod thing was that <u>Gulliver had waded into the sea with iron hook cables and swam to the Blefescu fleet. </u>Blefescuian forces had saw him and how giant he is so they were frightened and the sailors ran away and Gulliver had pulled the entire fleet to Lilliput by using the special cables that he had.

Chinua Achebe believes that "[l]iterature, whether handed down by word of mouth or in print, gives us a second handle on reality
IgorLugansk [536]
<span>In the work, “What Has Literature Got To Do With It” Chinua Achebe emphasizes his belief that literature is much more than just a creative form of expression, arguing that it is a necessary and vital contribution to everyday life. Achebe explains how “Literature, whether handed down by word of mouth or in print; gives us a second handle on reality”(117). It does so by providing the essential building blocks toward development, or as he calls it, “modernization.” In other words, Achebe argues that, in order for African nations to prosper and become successful, their first “goal” should be to understand literature.

Which lines from the text best help to develop the theme that people who have little in common can become friends?
Mariana [72]

The answers are:

"Jordyn the jock was not as bad as I thought she would be when I first learned we’d been paired to lead the cabin of eight-year-olds."

"By the second week of camp, I realized I actually liked Mariah a lot more than I’d expected to."

The lines help to develop the theme that people who have little in common can become friends because both caracters admit that they have made previous judgements before getting to know each other. However, after sharing and going through certain circumstances, they realize that they actually like each other.

Which in-text citation is correctly formatted in MLA style? (Smith 179) (Smith 2015) (Smith, 2015) (Smith, p. 179)
katrin [286]

The correct answer is "(Smith 179)".

The MLA in-text citation format comprises the author's last name and the page number of the author's work being referred to. These elements MUST NOT be separated by a comma or any other punctuation mark.

The option "(Smith 2015)" could be considered correct provided the author's work is 2015 pages long or more. It is most likely this number indicates the publication year of the author's work, rather than the page number. Therefore, this option is discarded.
