The night dragged on with an endless, bitterly cold routine of pumping, steering and working

Ipatiy [6.2K]

This question is incomplete. Here´s the complete question.

The night dragged on with an endless, bitterly cold routine of pumping, steering and working the radio. We were getting no replies to our Mayday Calls - which was not surprising in this remote corner of the world.

Sue's head had swollen alarmingly; she had two enormous black eyes, and now she showed us a deep cut on her arm. When I asked why she hadn't made more of her injuries known before this, she replied, “I didn't want to worry you when you were trying to save us all."

Questions:

1. How was the night described?

a. Peaceful

b. Enjoyable

c. Agonizing

d. Endurable

2. Mayday Calls refers to

a. International distress

b. International peace

c. International hay

d. International fest

3. Sue comes forth as a girl with firm ___in her parents.

a. disbelief

b. incredulity

C. skepticism

d. conviction

4. What does enormous mean?

a. miniature

b. huge

c. insignificant

d. compressed

Answer:

1. How was the night described?

c. Agonizing

2. Mayday Calls refers to

a. International distress

3. Sue comes forth as a girl with firm ___in her parents.

d. conviction

4. What does enormous mean?

b. huge

Explanation:

The word "agonizing" refers to something that produces important physical or mental distress, such as the situation described.

A Mayday Call is the international radio distress signal for boats and planes.

Sue shows conviction, meaning a strong belief, on her parents' attempt to save them all.

The word "enormous" refers to something quite large.

Read the excerpt from "Save the Coral Reefs.”

svetoff [14.1K]

<span>Q1: The ability of an ecosystem to recover from damage.
In the text, it says "the resiliency of the reefs". From this we know that resiliency is a trait that the reefs have. In the next sentence, we see the context clues that define resiliency when it states "reefs bounce back-even flourish." When someone or something bounces back it recovers and returns to it's previous state.

Q2: to inform readers about how the coral reefs are being destroyed AND to convince readers that practices that destroy coral reefs must be stopped.
It is a "Check All That Apply" so more than one answer can be chosen. The passage title is "Save the Coral Reefs" and the selection ends with the sentence "More can be done now to help the coral reefs bounce back". These clues tell the reader that the author's purpose is to save the reefs. In order to do this the author needs to first explain how the reefs are being destroyed. Then convince readers to save the reefs by stopping the practices that destroy them.

Q3: "could help save" and "unsubstantiated risks".
It is important to pay attention to the question here. It is asking for phrases that support safety - not necessarily nutrition. A pixie stick is safe to eat, but not nutritious. The phrase "could help save" supports the idea that it is safe because it is being defined as possibly life and eye-saving. "Unsubstantiated risks" also shows safety because it state that any risks have not been proven and are therefore unfounded. Some of the other phrases such as "more vitamin A" and "more nutritious" support the argument that the food is healthier but are not used to specifically explain how safe it is.</span>

drek231 [11]

"Yes, all those points are true about Shakespeare, but most of them are true of other authors as well" (B) is the comment that best illustrates the technique of drawing comparisons during a discussion.

In this discussion, people were apparently talking about Shakespeare and his work or his life. The speaker who delivered this comment brought up other authors into the conversation, inviting the other speakers to consider a comparison between Shakespeare and these authors. By doing so, the speaker is also giving his opinion on the comparison: he thinks Shakespeare and the other authors are alike in some aspects.
