I would think that setting the scene of someone dying is appropriate to be in a bedroom where a sick person would most likely be (if not in a hospital) such as someone in palliative care for example and the bedroom stillness is commented on broken only by a fly and whose buzz perhaps accentuated the otherwise stillness. If the person's death was outside or in a public place it would more likely be the result of a, say an accident, or say an assassination such as that of Martin Luther King so since it is inside in a bedroom it indicates the dying is just a normal death from illness and/or old age.
Yes, the book would’ve had only a slightly larger effect if it was organized differently
When Oedipus asks the blind prophet for his advice, the chorus is confused because of the answer the prophet provides. He accuses the King Oedipus of being the murderer of the previous king. The chorus are now confused and afraid of the whole situation.
No one can believe that the accusations are truth. They're unsure as to whom they should believe in since phrophets are considered emissaries of the gods and its impossible for them to be mistaken. They now found themselves conflicted.
Hope this helps !
Answer:
As Pete and Malia headed out the door on <u>their</u> way to the convention, they almost forgot the money they would need to get in <u>there</u>.
They were very excited to <u>buy</u> the latest edition of their favorite comic book <u>by</u> their favorite author.
Explanation:
Homophones are words that are pronounced the same way but have different meanings (and sometimes spelling).
In the first sentence, there are two homophones:<em> their </em>and<em> there.</em><em> </em><em>Their</em> is a word used to describe that something <em>belongs to them</em> (Pete and Malia's way - their way). <em>There</em> is the opposite of <em>here</em> and means <em>at that place </em>(get into the convention - get in there).
The second pair of homophones is <em>buy</em> and<em> by</em>. <em>To buy</em> is a verb that means <em>to purchase</em> something. <em>By</em> is a preposition used to state who is performing a certain action (a comic book by their favorite author - their favorite author wrote the book they are buying).
The answer for the given question above would be the second option. The quote from “Two Friends” that summarizes the theme of the story and foreshadows what is to come is this: <span>“As far as I am concerned, you are two spies sent to keep an eye on me.” Hope this helps.</span>
