I started to clean everything up, and that was when I noticed something else weird. In the middle of all of that glass was a lit

tle envelope, about the size of a wireless Internet card. What the? I opened it up, and inside there was a key. What the, what the? It was a weird-looking key, obviously to something extremely important, because it was fatter and shorter than a normal key. I couldn’t explain it: a fat and short key, in a little envelope, in a blue vase, on the highest shelf in his closet. —Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, Jonathan Safran Foer Which three words and phrases in the passage indicate tone? “all that glass” “clean everything” “something extremely important” “something else weird” “What the?”

Arada [10]
<span>The question is asking us to re-write the sentence "Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and the race was won by him last weekend. " The options are the following: 1) Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and the race had been won by him last weekend. - there is no need for the past perfect, as the first sentence is in a present tense 2) Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and he won the race last weekend. - this is the best option, there is no problem with it; 3)Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and he win the race last weekend. i - this is grammatically wrong as we need a past tense in the last part; 4) Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and the race was win by him last weekend - this is also wrong as you would have to say "was won"</span>

In the poem “Afterwards,” Hardy uses figurative language, including euphemism, to develop meaning and tone. What is the meaning
Ne4ueva [31]
In the poem "Afterwards," Hardy uses many euphemisms to refer to death. He never actually says the words die, dead, or death.

Instead, he says things like: "If I pass during..." Here, the term "pass" is replacing the word "die." He also uses the very wordy "When the Present has latched its postern behind my tremulous stay" (which basically means "When the present is behind me" or "When I am part of the past").

The effect of these euphemisms is to have a quiet, calming effect on the reader. If he constantly used the words "die" and "death" throughout the poem, the dreamlike quality of the poem would be altered.

Instead, using terms like "afterward" and all the other euphemisms allows Hardy to discuss death without actually discussing it. In this way, he wonders what the rest of the world will do "after."
