Hello. This question is incomplete. the complete question is:

"Read the excerpt from Iqbal. Hussain Khan looked at us and growled, "What do you think you're looking at? Get back to work." We bent to our looms, but then we quickly peeked over our shoulders. Hussain brought the new boy over to an empty loom in the row next to mine, pulled out a rusty shackle, and locked it on the boy's right ankle. "This will be your place, here's where you'll work," he said. Based on the excerpt, which inference can be made about the setting? Children decide to begin working at young ages. Children are used to working in unfair conditions. The workshop is a safe and healthy environment. Carpet-making is the main industry in the area"

Answer:

Children are used to working in unfair conditions.

Explanation:

The text above shows a situation where children are working on looms unfairly and in inhumane situations. As we can see through the narrative, children are verbally treated, in addition to being trapped by the feet in an act of total cowardice and malice. However, they all act naturally, as if that were a common situation in their daily lives. For this reason, we can say that it is possible to infer that in this text, children are used to working in unfair conditions.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

No, quaint means attractively unusual or old-fashioned. Bus terminals are typically pretty busy so that's nothing unusual. I would assume a very busy bus terminal wouldn't be old-fashioned either, it would probably be pretty new.

QveST [7]

Answer:

Both are a type of affix.

Both can change a word's meaning.

Explanation:

Prefixes and suffixes are both types of affixes. An affix is something that is placed at the beginning or end of a word to modify its meaning. The suffix /-ology/ can be added to a root word to change the meaning to /the study of/ whatever the word is. The prefix /de/ can be added to a root to indicate that something is going down; /a/ can be added to show it is going up. For example, the words ascend and descend use these prefixes to show where something is going.
