How does the word haunted appear as a motif in John Updike's "The Brown Chest," and how does it contribute to the meaning of the

story? The word haunted describes the boy’s ancestors. The word suggests their actions still affect him and influence his personality, even when he becomes an adult. The word haunted describes items of antiquity. As a boy and as an adult, the narrator peers anxiously at old, unused items that make him feel uneasy. The word haunted suggests that the boy is still haunted by memories of his childhood and his parents. The chest is a reminder of personal experiences he can’t ignore. The word haunted describes the house the boy lived in. Even after he and his family moved to a new home, the memories of his fear stay with him

Which BEST describes Mr. Bixby's influence on the narrator's learning how to "read" the water?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Excerpt from: Life on the Mississippi

Mark Twain

THERE was no use in arguing with a person like this. I promptly put such a strain on my memory that by and by even the shoal water and the countless crossing-marks began to stay with me. But the result was just the same. I never could more than get one knotty thing learned before another presented itself. Now I had often seen pilots gazing at the water and pretending to read it as if it were a book; but it was a book that told me nothing. A time came at last, however, when Mr. Bixby seemed to think me far enough advanced to bear a lesson on water-reading. So he began—

What is wrong with this citation: (Herring, The American Century and beyond: U.S. foreign relations, 1893-2014, 2017).
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Omission of author's first name, published information, incorrect citation of print with the wrong usage of brackets.

Explanation:

Citation is very crucial to the paper writing as it may spoil the effectiveness of the work if the references are cited inappropriately. Here, the first name of the author is missing along with the publishing information. The correct citation of this example would be;

Herring, George C., The American Century and beyond: U.S. foreign relations, 1893-2014. Oxford History of United States Series,Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2017.

Item 4 What is the best definition of fascist as it used in this sentence? The man says he alone has the solution to the world's
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Based solely on this sentence? Best definition if we're only using this is...

A person who is authoritarian ('he alone'), blunt ('uses the literal meanings of words') and forcibly supresses others ('will not listen to others', 'makes decisions on behalf of others').

Not too far off the mark, but there's a lot more to fascism than is shown here.
