The correct answer is D) thinks that discussing his wife’s behavior is beneath him.

Exaplanation:

In the line 34, The Duke says that he does not “stoop to blame” the Duchess for her actions. It means that he does not bow down himself to tell her how he disapproves her behaviour. The meaning of stoop is to bow down to the same level of other person, so the duke will never lower himself  to the Duchess’s level to blame her.

I believe the correct answer is - <span>Garcia uses formal, academic language and location words to suggest a theory about fate.
As you can see in the excerpt above, Garcia is using words such as vagaries, happenstance, etc, which are not normally used in everyday conversations. Thus, they are a bit formal, academic, and suggest a certain message in the text.

Leya [2.2K]

Rukmani's life is filled with struggle, yet she remains resolutely optimistic about her future. Married off to a poor rice farmer at the age of 12, Rukmani struggles through loneliness, infertility, starvation, and great loss with persevering optimism. The novel's title, Nectar in a Sieve, refers to nectar, a sweet liquid, and a sieve, a device with meshes that allows liquid to pass through while trapping solids in the device. The title suggests Rukmani's ability to appreciate the short, sweet moments in life before they disappear. During the Deepavali celebration in Chapter 10, for example, Rukmani's family struggles to eat, yet she doles out precious pennies for the children to buy fireworks because "it is only once ... a memory." Similarly, at the end of the novel when she and Nathan have been saving to return to the village, she feels overcome with happiness while at the market with Puli. She buys fried pancakes instead of plain rice cakes and wooden toys for the children: "Well, if we are extravagant it is only once." No matter what suffering comes Rukmani's way, she maintains optimism that life can only get better. She tells Kenny, "Want is our companion from birth to death." Rather than wallow in what's lacking, Rukmani always chooses to look ahead: to the next meal, the next year, or the next harvest.

Read these lines from "The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll" and answer the question.
harkovskaia [24]
I'm kind of confused as to what is being asked.... but this is my best answer.
SOCIAL Prejudice, (maybe legal if we talk about the consequence to his actions)

why it cant be the others--->
racial ---- they say nothing about race here.
(MAYBE) legal----- from the passage, we can say that the guy is richhhhh, and he might be able to wave off the consequences of his murder. but then again you only analyze this passage so, probably not
environmental---- they don't mention the environment....

THE REASON WHY IT SHOULD BE SOCIAL- their social standings in this situation 
-diamond ring (if thats what they mean by diamond ring finger, it could mean something else as well) only the rich can afford, a cane too
- hotel society gathering... (rich)
-poor Hattie Carroll could be literal as well.

An air mass changes _____.
nikklg [1K]

The correct answer is C, as an air mass changes the weather of the area over which it moves.

An air mass is defined as a large portion of air, with a horizontal extension of several hundred kilometers, whose physical properties, especially temperature, moisture content and vertical temperature gradient, are more or less uniform.

Between two air masses fronts are formed, which can have different temperatures.

The cold front is a band of instability that occurs when a mass of cold air approaches a hot air mass. The cold air, being more dense, generates a "wedge" and gets under warm and less dense air.

The cold fronts move quickly. They are strong and can cause atmospheric disturbances such as thunderstorms, squalls, tornadoes, strong winds and short snowstorms before the cold front passes, accompanied by dry conditions as the front advances.

The warm front is the front of a warm air mass that moves to replace a cold air mass. Generally, with the passage of the warm front the temperature and humidity increase, the pressure drops and although the wind changes it is not as pronounced as when a cold front passes.

An occluded front is formed when a slower moving hot front is followed by a cold front with faster displacement. The cold wedge-shaped front reaches the hot front and pushes it upwards. The two fronts continue moving one behind the other and the line between them is what forms the occluded front.

Finally the stationary front is a limit between two air masses, of which none is strong enough to replace the other.
