He is curious about it and while anyone else would probably avoid the place or be scared of going near the meteorite, Ogilvy doesn't care about that and wants to know what it looks like and what it is. It goes for the worse when he realizes what is actually happening.</span>

How does the use of the word transformed support the claim in this passage?
Lera25 [3.4K]

From the 1750s on, sugar transformed how Europeans ate. Chefs who served the wealthy began to divide meals up. Where sugar had previously been used either as a decoration (as in the wedding feast) or as a spice to flavor all courses, now it was removed from recipes for meat, fish, and vegetables and given its own place—in desserts. Dessert as the extremely sweet end to the meal was invented because so much sugar was available. But the wealthy were not the only ones whose meals were changing. Sugar became a food, a necessity, and the foundation of the diet for England's poorest workers.

It indicates that the addition of sugar was a significant change to Europeans' diets.

Answer: Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the paragraph that has been shown above, the way the Europeans ate in the 1750s and the change in their way of eating has been talked about. It shows that there has been addition of sugar in their diet.

Earlier sugar was only used as a way of decoration or as a spice to flavor up all the courses. But later the intake of sugar increased a lot in the diet of the Europeans and it became a necessity, it became a food.

Which parts of this excerpt from Beowulf describe the speaker's brave accomplishments?
eimsori [14]

Speaker's brave conquests are mentioned or at least cited in the following options from the excerpt:

  • <em>Option 1</em>, in which he tells about his innumerable combats he had won.
  • <em>Option 4 </em>also celebrates his fight with Grendel.
  • In <em>Option 6</em>, the speaker is showing us how valiant his action in the field of war can be.

Therefore, I assume, from my understanding, that these are the three statements from the provided excerpt which focus on the narrators heroic accomplishments.

In paragraph 4, Alice says to herself: “‘not that it signifies much…. I should think it would be quite as much use in the trial
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The correct answer is C)

Explanation:

To Alice, the entire trial was a sham. There was a Jury (of which the Lizard was a member) that was incapable of reading. If this was so, how could they evaluate any evidence that spoke to her credit or demerit?

For in the same Chapter 7, a letter or a collection of verses was read which according to the Queen was a piece of evidence against Alice. The Jury, even upon the challenge to do so by Alice, could not interpret the same.

Cheers!
