<span>1. </span>I believe the correct answer is B. The stream of
consciousness technique.
This excerpt is an
example of Woolf's use of the stream of consciousness technique as an
experimental narrative form. This technique allowed her to present inner though
process of multiple characters throughout the text (in this excerpt the
thoughts of Septimus).
<span>2. </span>I believe the correct answer is C. intense
anxiety and fear.
From a description of
the scene, we are transported into the mind of the harrowed war soldier,
Septimus. The words such as wavered, quivered, burst, and throb, give us a
sense of his intense anxiety and fear.
<span>3. </span>I believe the correct answer is: C. "Things
fall apart; the centre cannot hold."
The description of
the scene is reminiscent of the following line from a poem “The Second coming”
by William Butler Yeats is "Things fall apart; the center cannot
hold." Septimus believes that he is the one stopping the world from
bursting to flames:” It is I who am blocking the way, he thought. Was he not
being looked at and pointed at; was he not weighted there, rooted to the
pavement, for a purpose?”
Answer:
Total Costs = $38580
Minimum Cost for 4 years = $116320
Explanation:
Data is not given in the question. However data related to the question is attached below
(See the table attached)
<h3>Total Costs for Tara's First Year:</h3>
As all the costs of Tuition, Room/board, Books/Lab, Transportation and Other are given in the table attached below, we just have to add all of them to get total costs for Tara's first year
Total Costs = $24500 + $8940 + $1950 + $1390 + $1800
Total Costs = $38580
<h3>
Minimum Cost for 4 years:</h3>
We know that
Total Costs per year = $38580
Total Federal Grants per year = $9500
Minimum cost per year = $38580 - $9500 = $29080
Minimum Cost for 4 years = $29080*4
Minimum Cost for 4 years = $116320
