I was in the National Forest with my camera. The day was crisp, and the leaves were turning gold and red. When I spotted the whi

te-tailed buck, I froze. He wasn't more than 15 yards from where I was standing. The wind must have been right, because he kept on browsing the mossy ground. I lifted my camera very slowly. Carefully, holding my breath, I lifted the camera to my eye. Turning the focus ring, I framed the deer's head. Just as I was ready to press the shutter release, the buck raised his head. He was looking my way with wide eyes. Click. I took the picture. An instant later, the deer bounded away into the forest. He took off, but I had the shot. Today, the framed photo of that buck hangs above our fireplace.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      What is the author implying in the phrase "the wind must have been right"?                  A. The deer was clearly not afraid of humans.                                                                B. The author was worried the wind would disturb his shot.
 C. The deer was not able to pick up the scent of the author.                                          D. The author was fortunate to have his camera with him.

I believe the answer is C because the sentence continues with, ..."because he kept on browsing the mossy ground." That shows that the reason why the deer didn't run away is because it didn't pick up the scent of the author, which is why it kept on browsing the ground.

How does the character of the talking skull reveal the author's point of view in the story
posledela

Answer:

The Talking Skull

Explanation:

In Donna L. Washington's "The Talking Skull-A fairy tale by Cameroon," the theme involves how you might be bothered by speaking too much about yourself and talking too loud. In order to teach the lesson, the author utilities the character of the talking skull. A man who sees himself as a philosopher and who speaks and talks about topics that are just essential to him, but who nobody else needs to know, discovers a skull. In other words, the skull responds directly to what triggered her death, "Talking."

In at least one hundred words, explain the basic structure of 1001 Nights.
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

i hope these are hepful

Explanation:

It is a series of 1,000 poems, each of which tells a story. If you put together the first line of each of the poems, you get a final story, which is #1001, hence the title. Each of the poems was written by a different Persian poet in the 15th through 18th centuries and later translated into English. Most of them deal with legends from the Mongol Empire that were told by troubadours along the trade routes of Bucharest and Kamchatka

It is a group of stories which are interrupted by "Scherazade saw morning and discreetly fell silent"  The following night the story telling begins right after the interruption.  The interruptions are based on the length of the story and during some nights 2 or 3 short stories are told.  Some of these stories are organized into groups such as "Garden of verses". Many of the stories take place during the time of Haroun, Caliph of Bagdad. It is on 1001th night that all the stories have been told. .

Which TWO sections of text in these excerpts from Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway deal with the motif of water?
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The answer is (A) the air was in the early morning; like the flap of a wave; the kiss of a wave.

Explanation:

The air was in the early morning; like the fold of a wave; the kiss of a wave.What a songbird! What a dive! For so it had dependably appeared to her, when, with a little squeak of the pivots, which she could hear now, she had blasted open the French windows and dove at Burton away from any detectable hindrance air. How new, how quiet, stiller than this obviously, the air was in the early morning; like the fold of a wave; the kiss of a wave; chill and sharp but then grave, feeling as she did, remaining there at the open window, that something dreadful was going to occur.
