English

enyata [817]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Samuel Johnson's Dictionary of the English Language is one of the most famous dictionaries in history. First published in 1755, the dictionary took just over eight years to compile, required six helpers, and listed 40,000 words. Each word was defined in detail, the definitions illustrated with quotations covering every branch of learning. It was a huge scholarly achievement, a more extensive and complex dictionary than any of its predecessors and the comparable French Dictionnarre had taken 55 years to compile and required the dedication of 40 scholars.

Read the excerpt from chapter 8 of The Travels of Marco Polo. This province produces great quantities of excellent white incense
worty [1.4K]

The answer is: The author uses the word "excellent" to describe the incense grown in the province.

An opinion is a point of view or judgement of something, which is not necessarily based on evidence or observation. In the excerpt from "The Travels of Marco Polo," the narrator indicates his opinion of the incense the province produces with the word excellent, which means extremely good or outstanding.

The rest of the alternatives are incorrect because they are based on facts and knowledge, and not someone's view or feeling.

What does hawthorne mean when he writes one token of her shame would but poorly serve to hide another in the final paragraph?
Stells [14]
One token of her shame is her child, an apparent proof of her infidelity to her husband, who had been gone for long. Another token is the scarlet letter A, embroidered on her chest. It stands for "Adultery", as a shameful mark of the public condam.nation. First, she tries to conceal the letter, but then she realizes it isn't possible, and decides to reveal it.

The fact that this letter is beautifully embroidered, in spite of its meaning, tells us that she will live up to the challenge, and eventually find a way to clear her reputation.
