~ANSWER ASAP BEST ANSWER WILL GET BRAINLIEST~
Rasek [7]
Muir starts off talking about how long he had been sitting by the Calypso-so long that he wasn't tired or hungry anymore. We, as the readers, think he has a bad attitude about sitting by this plant.We think this because it seems like he is describing his wait as painful(he is WAY past being tired or hungry). However, the next sentence contrasts with this idea. When the sun sets, Muir suddenly gets this jolt of purpose and energy, stronger and determined than ever before. Can you see the pattern here? As for the dialogue, it is a woman speaking, and she lives in the log house he sees. She has a negative attitude towards the swamp, while Muir has a positive one. She wonders why he would want to be in a dangerous place like the swamp, explaining that a body was found in it. She then goes on to say that it was God's mercy that Muir was able to get out of the mucky swamp.I hope this helps!

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Two scenarios where all examples of non-verbal communication functions are shown are:

"Your mother wants to tell you that she will go to yours, but she doesn't want your little brother to hear, in which case, she replaces the words, with a movement with her hands that indicates that she will leave the house. In this conversation you include an information using your hand to indicate to your mother where the car keys are. "

"Your friend is talking to you about her new boyfriend, she talks about how aggressive he is, but that is because he loves her very much. You contradict what she says, making a movement with your head that indicates denial and says that this is not an ideal behavior for someone in love. Your friend shakes her hands trying to change what she said, but you regulate the situation by raising a hand and saying that you don't want to hear any more. "

Explanation:

Non-verbal communication is that which is done without the use of written or spoken words. However, all messages are transmitted through movements, gestures and facial expressions. This type of communication represents a transmission of messages in a very expressive way and shows the content of the message, it also serves to transmit codes and secret messages.
