Answer:
I tried to picture those hands sowing seeds long ago, when Grandfather and the other Wampanoag people lived in Massachusetts.
Explanation:
This is the detail that most clearly gives this passage a reflective tone. In these lines, the author talks about his grandfather, and the stories he use to tell. We learn that the grandfather is Native American, and the stories cause the speaker to reflect on the past of these people and the experiences that they have gone through.
Answer:
It would be hard to find a European city that has a worse reputation than <u>Bartovia's</u>, with crime, rubbish, graffiti and dereliction featuring in every description over the last 60 years. With unemployment running at 11% and the city government essentially bankrupt, there are few bright spots in <u>Bartovia's </u>future. One of the few, however, is a new venture run by Sergio Leone, who has returned to the city of his birth to try and make the impossible a reality. Along with tanning (the process of treating animal <u>skins</u> to produce leather), dyeing has a long and glorious history in Bartovia. The difference today, though, is that <u>Sergio Leone's</u> mission is to bring to a centuries-old tradition the very latest bleeding-edge technology.
If I bolded and underlined the word, it means I either added one or took it out. I added 3 and took out 1. Skins is the one I took out, the rest I put in.
Let me Know I I am right. :)
Answer:
The universal theme present in this excerpt is:
A. Hard work often leads to injuries and suffering.
Explanation:
"A Girl from Yamhill" is a memoir by author Beverly Cleary. In the particular excerpt we are analyzing here, the universal theme that can be noticed is that hard work often leads to injuries and suffering. <u>We all know that, as a general rule, farm work is hard work. It demands a lot of physical strength from those performing it. The character in the excerpt has the muscles to do the work, but his shoulder sockets are too shallow for the weight of those muscles. When the horses jer.k on the reins, he dislocates his arm. This injury obviously leads to pain and suffering.</u>
B. did all their chores and then they decided to watch a movie
