Answer:

The narrator's attention to the arrival of Martians was first drawn when a large cylindrical object crashed near the home of the narrator in Maybury.

Explanation:

"The War Of The Worlds" is a science fiction written by H. G. Wells.

The novel is about the invasion of Martians on planet Earth to destroy it and take over it.

In the novel, the narrator is a hobbyist astronomer who, first, sensed the invasion of Martians on Earth, when he observed the flashes from Mars. About this, the narrator, informs his friend Ogilvy, who mocks him and ignored  his observation.

<u>The narrator's attention was first drawn to the arrival of Martians when there was a crash of a cylindrical object near his home in Maybury. He describes the object as a 'big greyish, rounded bulk.' This object crashed in the backyard of his home and when he saw the cylindrical object, he knew they were Martians</u>.

sergey [27]

Answer:

relevance

Explanation:

Mr Young argument that he studied his notes and chapters for 18 hours before taking the exam and yet did not get good grade and thought he deserved a higher grade fails the standard of relevance. His argument is not important to the subject matter and lacks the existence to make the subject matter a fact. You can study for as long as you want, but there are other factors that determines good grades that Mr. Young did not consider, such as ability to retain information, intelligence level, and others.

Which aspect of the following poem might imagists most admire?
sasho [114]
Imagists believed that poems should have "no ideas but in things." In other words, they would described powerful images, and instead of explaining what those images meant, they would let the reader decide what the meaning or value of those images might be. 

Imagists were especially fond of inviting the reader to recognize how very different sorts of images can actually be really similar. Ezra Pound famously did this with his short poem "In a Station of the Metro," which associates "faces in the crowd" with "petals on a wet, black bough."

The poem in your question does something very similar by associating the cat's footprints in the snow with the blossoming flowers of a plum tree. The writer wants you to recognize the odd visual similarity of the footprints and the flowers, ideally to show how there's a kind of cosmic connectedness in the world by (because two very different things end up being really similar).

That's why I think your best answer is A.
