The correct answer is A) Great great-grandchildren retell the story of the early days.

The detail from "Home Place Retold" that supports the central idea that despite physical changes, Watonwan is a special place for generations of people is "Great great-grandchildren retell the story of the early days."

This story talks about an immigrant group from Europe called the Mennonites, that is somehow related to other similar immigration group called the Amish. Mennonites have different cultures and customs that could seem contradictory to common American customs. For instance, in Mennonites communities, siblings are allowed to marry each other. On the other hand, Mennonites are known to be dedicated and committed workers who know how to farm the land and produce quality food.

Alex73 [517]
<span>In each of these pieces of writing, feminine identities are revealed as if they are unhappy with themselves. Within each piece of writing, they start to focus on their inner self, and accept things that cannot be changed, along with self checking themselves. Each of these focuses on the feminine figure really going deep within her inner self to find individualism and peace with herself. 

In Sara Teasdale's work she focuses on a theme of inner reflection and isolation. 

In "A Servant to Servants" the farm wife describes her isolated, unfullfilled, maddening life. 

In "Aunt Imogen" she is unhappy with her choices in life to not get married or have children. She gets sad when she sees her sisters children because she didn't have children of her own. In the end she accepts that this is what she chose with her life. </span>

In your opinion, is Nathaniel Hawthorne's description of Goodman Brown's dream believable? Give reasons to support your answer.
Tems11 [23]
<span>Nathaniel Hawthorne's description of Goodman Brown's dream is very believable. This is because Young Goodman Brown is a depiction of Puritan culture, and the Puritans as a whole were very repressed and terrified of d.amnation. As a result, it makes sense that he would encounter the d.evil in the woods, and that the moral would be that the d.evil is present in all people.This includes his faithful wife Faith, who may stand as a metaphor for religious belief if one is to take her name literally, but also represents the Puritans's- and religion as a whole's- degradation of women. With Christianity it started at the very beginning, with Eve taking a bite of the apple and condemning mankind. This is exactly the kind of dream that a repressed young Puritan man would have, especially early on in his marriage, where hidden doubts would begin to arise. Puritans greatly encouraged self denial, and so Young Goodman brown experiences temptation to sin, but must deny himself. As a result, he becomes old and miserly, and loses his faith in humanity. It is questionable whether Hawthorne intended Brown to actually have seen the d.evil, but the dream itself is believable.</span>

How does the use of the word transformed support the claim in this passage?
Lera25 [3.4K]

From the 1750s on, sugar transformed how Europeans ate. Chefs who served the wealthy began to divide meals up. Where sugar had previously been used either as a decoration (as in the wedding feast) or as a spice to flavor all courses, now it was removed from recipes for meat, fish, and vegetables and given its own place—in desserts. Dessert as the extremely sweet end to the meal was invented because so much sugar was available. But the wealthy were not the only ones whose meals were changing. Sugar became a food, a necessity, and the foundation of the diet for England's poorest workers.

It indicates that the addition of sugar was a significant change to Europeans' diets.

Answer: Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the paragraph that has been shown above, the way the Europeans ate in the 1750s and the change in their way of eating has been talked about. It shows that there has been addition of sugar in their diet.

Earlier sugar was only used as a way of decoration or as a spice to flavor up all the courses. But later the intake of sugar increased a lot in the diet of the Europeans and it became a necessity, it became a food.

Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

She wants to gain control of the situation.

She is shocked by his insults.

She has sympathy for the fellow Austrian.

She plans to confess her crimes.

Answer:

She wants to gain control of the situation.

Explanation:

In the text above we can see that the officer is totally out of control, shouting and making a scandal in front of Miep, who remains calm and focused, without reacting to all the shouting that the officer is emitting. Miep does this to keep control of the situation in her hands and to stand in favor of her actions, showing courage and showing that she doesn’t tackle anything, more than that, when taking control of the situation Miep shows that she is correct and that there is no need for despair and scandals when you are correct.
