4. by? I know for sure it not 1. for and 3. from.
Dear friend.
Imagine him receiving that message has been the only happiness in my life. I don't know you, nor do you know me, but if fate has allowed you to find my message, it's because you need to know about me and help, if not me, other victims like me.
I find myself trapped in the basement of the sadistic, mad, murderous General Zaroff. I arrived here after my ship wreck survived. I came in search of help, but I only received despair and panic. The general hunts me like an animal, plotting my death all the time. I can no longer sleep, and control my nerves, I live on the edge of insanity all the time and I believe that my days of life will be short if I remain here, or if I throw myself into the sea, trying in vain to escape my captivity.
I'm afraid of suffering at the hands of Zaroff, I'm afraid of a slow and painful death, but my biggest fear is that this rascal will get away with his actions.
Please take this letter to the authorities and help an unfortunate person like me.
Answer:
Vegetarianism is, in general, the practice of living on a diet that does not include meat and even other animal products. There are, however, different kinds of vegetarian diets. Some may include eggs, for instance, while others may exclude eggs but include milk.
Explanation:
<u>Writing objectively means writing in an unbiased, impartial manner. The writer avoids manifesting his own opinion and ideas on the subject. If you read the answer above, you will see the sentences are all impartial. They contain only facts about vegetarianism, but no opinions about it are voiced. Therefore, they are examples of objective writing.</u> Compare them with the example below, which is written subjectively:
- Vegetarianism is too hard. I don't think I would last a week as a vegetarian.
See the difference? The subjective sentence above expresses a personal opinion.
Answer:
No, quaint means attractively unusual or old-fashioned. Bus terminals are typically pretty busy so that's nothing unusual. I would assume a very busy bus terminal wouldn't be old-fashioned either, it would probably be pretty new.
Explanation:
Answer: "By contrast, the plantation had only one purpose: to create a single product that could be grown, ground, boiled, dried, and sold to distant markets."
Explanation:
<em>Sugar Changed the World </em>is a book written by Marc Aronson and Marina Budhos. In the book, they explore the history of sugar, particularly in slave trade.
In this excerpt, the author's claim is that plantation was considered as a revolutionary way of making sugar: the whole process from planting the seeds to drying and selling it was happening in one place. It was the first time in human history that the farms were organized in such a way. The correct answer is, therefore, the second option.
