Answer:
It was very low inside the house, and so dim, with the closed blinds, that they could scarcely see one another;
Her father standing decorously apart with his hat on his forearm, as at funerals; a woman rested in a deep arm-chair, and the woman who had let the strangers in stood behind the chair.
<em>Editha</em>, by William Dean Howells, is an antiwar story published in 1905. Its characters are people who greatly value custom and ritual, even when it is objectively inconvenient or awkward for them to do so.
The two chosen lines exemplify that character trait. In the first sentence, the house has the blinds closed, as was common for houses where the family had recently experienced a loss or a tragedy. This rule is followed, even though it meant that the characters were barely able to see each other.
The second sentence has a similar example, as Edith's father stands at a distance and with his hat in his hands. We are told this is the way it is done at funerals, which is consistent with the previous sentence and with the character's personality traits.
The correct answer among the choices provided is the second option. Iambic pentameter was the meter pattern used in "On Imagination". Aside from iambic pentameter, Phyllis Wheatley also uses couplet and heroic form in her poems. Wheatley was an eighteenth-century black slave.
I would say the answer is D
I would say the answer is a. 5 and 7 because one is talking about teaching your dog to sit and the other is teaching your dog to lay down. I have a dog and to teach her to sit the process is the same as teaching her to lay down (I.e. you do the process to teach her either of those skills). Hope this helped! :)
Answer:
Anticipating is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Anticipating means that as a listener you think you already know what the speaker is going to say. By doing that, listener think that the speaker is saying unnecessary things or taking longer than he should. This type of people don't really pay attention to what they are listening to.
