Read the excerpt from "The Crab That Played with the Sea.” And the Rat said, ‘I am too busy biting through the line that this ol

d Fisherman is spinning. I do not play with the Sea.’ And he went on biting the line. Then the little girl-daughter put up her little soft brown arms with the beautiful white shell bracelets and said, ‘O Eldest Magician! when my father here talked to you at the Very Beginning, and I leaned upon his shoulder while the beasts were being taught their plays, one beast went away naughtily into the Sea before you had taught him his play. And the Eldest Magician said, ‘How wise are little children who see and are silent! What was the beast like?’ Which quotation from the passage is the best example of imagery? “I am too busy biting through the line that this old Fisherman is spinning. I do not play with the Sea.” “Then the little girl-daughter put up her little soft brown arms with the beautiful white shell bracelets.” “While the beasts were being taught their plays, one beast went away naughtily into the Sea before you had taught him his play.” “And the Eldest Magician said, ‘How wise are little children who see and are silent! What was the beast like?’”

The answer is :

B.) Then the little girl-daughter put up her soft brown arms with the beautiful white shell bracelets.

On Edgenuity 2020

Reasoning:

I got the question correct on Edgenuity :)

This answer has more adjectives that describes the little girl which allows the reader to have a better image of what is occuring in the story. Compared to the other answer choices, this choice is the best example of imagery. :)

Hope this helps minus my bad explanation :D

Which statement best describes Swift's use of understatement in this excerpt? He states that "roasting pigs" is more difficult t
m_a_m_a [10]

The excerpt is the following:

<em>As to our City of Dublin, shambles may be appointed for this purpose, in the most convenient parts of it, and butchers we may be assured will not be wanting; although I rather recommend buying the children alive, and dressing them hot from the knife, as we do roasting pigs.</em>

Answer:

He states that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as "roasting pigs."

Explanation:

An understatement is a figure of speech that consists of intentionally representing something less important or smaller than it really is. This is what Swift uses when he suggests that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as "roasting pigs." The author employs this figure of speech to catch the readers' attention and to criticize Irish society and its attitude toward the condition of poor farmers and laborers who can not feed their children due to the high rent they have to pay to their landowners. In order to improve the poor's economic situation, they'd better sell their children off as food to feed the wealthy.

Read the excerpt from an adaptation of "To Build a Fire."
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The man will realize the wisdom of the old-timer’s warning.

Explanation:

"To build a fire" is a short story by Jack London, this story is about a man who travels to the Yukon ignoring the warnings from an old-timer about the deathly Yukon winters (where temperatures can reach 40 below)

In this excerpt we can see the man saying he was safe, remembering the old-timer warning and thinking that the old-timers were "rather womanish". We can see that he thinks that the warning was not real and that he was safe and will be able to survive and deal with the subzero temperatures of the Yukon, thus, the best prediction based on this excerpt is that he will likely won't be able to continue with this streak of "safeness" and he will realize the wisdom of the old-timer's warning.

Why do you think both Wiesel and Annan speak of the importance of truth and personal responsibility?
Kipish [7]

Answer and Explanation:

Elie Wiesel was a 15-year-old boy during the Holocaust. His humanity shines as he bears witness to the tragedy that happens to the Jewish race at the Nazis' hands. Wiesel was a Jew whose home town of Sighet was occupied by the Hungarians during the second world war. He told his story about how he has been treated brutally by the hands of the Nazis. Speaking the truth, which shaken him emotionally, means everything to him. Night novel is a whole experience of Elie Wiesel in which minor details are also being written. The traumatic experience of Elie can shake the soul of anybody.  

Annan is also held responsible for telling the truth. He spoke about genocide over passively. In his book Interventions: A Life in War and Peace, Annan argued that the United Nations Department of Peacekeeping Operations could have made better use of the media to raise awareness of Rwanda's violence and put pressure on governments to provide the armed force which is necessary for an intrusion. He never compromised when there is time to speak the truth and taking responsibility.
