The answer should be A. We know Dev is being playful when he breaks a smile, which is said in the stage directions. It also says he thumbs his axe mischievously, which means he is being playful. Hope this helps!

What activity helps Francie avoid telling lies?
cupoosta [38]

The activity that helps Francie avoid telling lies is mindfulness. She is the protagonist of "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn." The book tells the story of Francie from the time she is 11 until she goes to college at 17. Although she struggles with many problems throughout the book (alcoholism, poverty, family problems, etc.) the novel ultimately contains a message of hope. The novel also discusses the dreams of immigrant families in the United States during the early twentieth century.

Why did Churchill replace Chamberlain as Britain's new prime minister shortly after World War II began?
Natasha2012 [34]

There should have been options to choose from for this question. I found the options elsewhere and the correct answer would be because Churchill had a better understanding of the situation with Hitler than Chamberlain did.

Churchill knew that diplomacy would not work with Hitler and the only way to reach a resolution was through military force and tactics.

Read the introduction to an argumentative essay.
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer: By adding closing sentence

Explanation:

The introduction will be more effective if the writer would add a closing sentence. The main idea of closing sentences is to establish and restates the most important thing about the argumentative essay, to show what are the key and the main idea of that essay.

This introduction needs strength and stable information because these pieces of information are incomplete and they are left hanging. Because it is the argumentative essay it would be good to be clear about what the author is arguing and what is he trying to describe.

In at least 150 words, discuss the significance iron plays in Jack Agueros’s story “'Agua Viva,' A Sculpture by Alfred Gonzalez.
mart [117]

Jacks Agueros's “'Agua Viva,' A Sculpture by Alfred Gonzalez" tells the story of Filthy Fredo, a hermit that collects scrap iron to build creations in his workshop. Filthy Fredo, is mentally unstable, hasn't shave or take a bath in five years, and the only human interaction that he had during the story is with some neighborhood boys which resulted to be violent at first glance. The author uses iron as a metaphor to Fredo's obsessive world, which is impenetrable as the iron creations that he builds for defense against the real world. One excerpt of the story that implies this conclusion is "His house had become the lair of the iron woodchuck, the hive of the iron bee, the storeroom of the iron squirrel, the complex of chambers of the iron ant". The iron served as the metaphoric armor of Fredo, and the only thing he enjoyed to do as a hermit. However, he eventually had to deal with the consequences of the life he decided to live and his inevitable return to society.
