nkling, where there was sick folks, maybe; and the stars over us was sparkling ever so fine; and down by the village was the river, a whole mile broad, and awful still and grand. We went down the hill and found Jo Harper and Ben Rogers, and two or three more of the boys, hid in the old tanyard. So we unhitched a skiff and pulled down the river two mile and a half, to the big scar on the hillside, and went ashore.

Answer: B) Imagery.

Explanation: Imagery is a literary device that consists in the use of figurative language or detailed descriptions in order to evoke the senses of the reader (sight, hearing, smell, touch or taste) and to create a mental picture. In the given excerpt from "Huckleberry Finn" we can see that Twain uses imagery like "and could see three or four lights twinkling," "the stars over us was sparkling ever so fine," "and down by the village was the river, a whole mile broad, and awful still and grand," etc, to develop Huck as an informal narrator.

I believe the answer is C because the sentence continues with, ..."because he kept on browsing the mossy ground." That shows that the reason why the deer didn't run away is because it didn't pick up the scent of the author, which is why it kept on browsing the ground.

The principal has cancelled the prom you are trying to persuade him or her using logos ethos and pathos
timofeeve [1]
As you know, I am an upstanding member of the academic team, basketball team, volleyball team, student counsel, and future engineer club. Being an outstanding student and athlete, I hope that you will find my objection to your cancelling of my senior class prom compelling. My family and I have attended church with you and your son, who graduated last year, my entire life. I've always found you to be a reasonable and caring man, who always has his students' best interest at heart. Prom is a right of passage for every high school student. It is a night to celebrate the friendships, long years of gruesome school work, and the coming of our adult lives. We have worked extremely hard on the fundraisers to pay for prom. It would be a waste of all the time and effort put into it, if you cancel prom.

Ethos means to show the ethics of the situation or your good character.
Pathos- means to try to incline to their emotions.
Logos- means to appeal to  their reasoning or logic.

How does Shylock's lamentation add humour to the play, Merchant of Venice? ​
dsp73

Answer:

Shylock in "Merchant of the Venice" is depicted as a comic character in the scene because of the way he laments the loss of his daughter and his ducat.

Explanation:

The manner in which Shylock's laments added humor to the play, His repetition of "O my daughter!, O! my christian ducats", amuses the audience and shows his greedy nature because it is shown that Jessica is another possession for him as well as the ducats.

The manner and way in which the boys of Venice mocked and jeered him as they followed him by repeating the tone of his lamentation, all this added to the humor in the scene. Shylock wants justice from the Jew who had eloped with his daughter and taking with her, his jewelry and ducats.

1. Which statement about Tumo’s motivation to go back to college part-time is true? A. Tumo was not motivated in his decision to
V125BC [204]

Answer:

Question 1: The answer is A.

Tumo was extrinsically motivated to go back to college part-time because he knew there was a real chance that the plant where he worked would shut down and move its operations out-of-state. But at the same time, he was also intrinsically motivated because he saw this as an oportunity to fulfill his dream of becoming a veterinarian.

Question 2: The answer is A.

Tumo exhibits a Growth mindset. Rather than believing his qualities are set and looking for a job in a similar plant, he is certain that his intelligence can grow. Because of this, he strives to improve himself.

Question 3: The answer is C.

By isolating himself, Tumo would not be building resilience, on the contrary, he would be allowing the situation to get the best of him. On the other hand, if he were to maintain a positive stance, take actions before getting fired or see this as an opportunity, Tumo would be developing resilience and getting himself ready for the future that awaits him.

What do “the sands run down into the glass” symbolize in the poem? What effect does this symbol have on the poem?
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

The “sands run down into the glass” symbolize the passage of time and the briefness of life. If each grain of sand represents a second of life passing by through an hourglass, it’s easy to visualize time as finite. This symbol in the poem highlights that regardless of whether one is idle or works hard, time will pass, we will grow old, and we will die. Dunbar Nelson uses the symbol to ask the reader to consider their own choices while they are living.
