Hi, I think the correct verb phrase would be: "was holding Esau's heel"
I really hope this helped!
In Canto IV, Dante is informed of how people who lived before the time of Jesus Christ are forced to spend the rest of their eternal after lives. He is told that they are stuck in limbo, and cannot be pulled from their grueling state. Dante weeps because he realizes it is unfair; those people did not have the option to follow Jesus Christ and be baptised into christianity.
A whale. (because of the weight, the fins, the fact that it sprayed salty water and the barnacles on the head)
Answer:
The best option here is D) There are many ways to teach a child about responsibility besides taking care of a dog, such as homework and other activities
Explanation:
Lets use the method of elimination to justify this.
A) is a repetition of Sentence 3. So this is out of the equation.
B) communicates an idea that is contrary to the theme of the paragraph which can be summarised as "Teaching a Child to responsibility as well as manage himself and other tasks". Responsibility means doing all that you ought to do without prejudice to the other by taking each one at the right time
C) States that taking care of the family do is priority. Again this runs contrary to the main idea of the paragraph.
Having eliminated A, B and C, we are left with D.
Sentence D simply implies that a there are a number of things which teach a child how to be responsible, taking care of a dog, doing his or her homework and carrying out other activities are examples of such.

<span>After reading the options, I would select the three following:
- "Shingled one- and two-room houses clamped themselves to the rocks like oysters."
</span><span>- "The chopping block one man was using to split his cordwood."
</span><span>- "In front of almost all of them was a dory or two, some overturned"
Modern homes are not usually shingled, and the shingled style for houses was popular long ago. Also, men usually don't need to use chopping blocks to split the cord wood because stores have this readily available. Finally, a dory is a type of boat and it's rather old-fashioned in my perspective.
Hope this helps! :)</span>
