The man at the gas station gave me directions and then kept on chatting, telling me about the weather to come and places to stay

nearby. His laconic wife simply nodded her head, occasionally correcting him on his lefts and rights and finally telling me I'd best be on my way if I wanted to reach town by sunset. Based on context clues in the passage, what is the most likely meaning of laconic? Select two options

Answer:

Meaning of laconic

It's the style of talking, people who answer in the few brief words. So, in this passage it shows that wife doesn't talk generally, but briefly, since it also says "occasionally correcting him on his lefts and rights", so she didn't really give the directions she just corrected his husband.

What distinguishes literary nonfiction from traditional nonfiction?
MariettaO [177]

Answer: D. Characterization

Literary nonfiction (also known as creative nonfiction, narrative nonfiction or verfabula) is a type of writing that uses various literary techniques in order to create historically accurate narratives. It is written with florid language and for entertainment, which is different from other types of non-fiction writing such as journalism.

Literary nonfiction still retains biographical and historical data, and it tries to maintain factual accuracy. It does not contain supernatural elements, as it is still a form of nonfiction. However, it does rely on characterization for entertainment and to make the story more engaging.

How does the story "Prince Louie" show the influence of the biblical story of Samson? In both stories, a strong hero loses his s
puteri [66]

Answer:

In both stories, a strong hero loses his strength through the treachery of his wife, who is an enemy spy.

Explanation:

In the biblical story of Samson,his mother is instructed by God at his birth never to shave a hair from his head and he would have super strength to achieve what mere men could not achieve.

True to the words of God, Samson grew up having great strength because his hair was never shaved. He fell in love and married Delilah a Philistine who was sent to spy on him and discover the secret of his great strength so he can be subdued. Samson tells her his secret and he is subdued by his enemies.

In the story <em>Prince Louie, </em>when Louie was only just a child, his mother tells him that soon he would become King Louis of Forbush and she gave him a ring and asked him to wear it at all times and he would succeed in his royal duties.

Just as his mother said, he grew up to become a successful king, banishing his enemies and the kingdom having peace. He fell in love and married Anabellla of Gnarltree who unknown to him was a spy sent to find out the secret of his power. King Louis told her his secret was the ring and sge got the ring off and his kingdom was invaded.
