Read the excerpt below and answer the question. …I had spoken too sudden, and said too much, and was in a close place. I asked h

er to let me think a minute…. So I went on studying it out. I says to myself, I reckon a body that ups and tells the truth when he is in a tight place, is taking considerable many resks, though I ain’t had no experience, and can’t say for certain; but it looks so to me, anyways; and yet here’s a case where I’m blest if it don’t look to me like the truth is better, and actuly safer, than a lie…. [I]t’s so kind of strange and unregular. I never see nothing like it. Well, I says to myself at last, I’m agoing to chance it. I’ll up and tell the truth this time, though it does seem most like setting down on a kag of powder and touching it off just to see where you’ll go to. What prompts Huck to tell the truth in this part of the story? He feels it is the right thing to do. He feels it is the safest thing to do. He wants the reward he will gain from it. He wants the con artists to get into trouble.

The correct answer is the following:<em> option a. What prompts Huck to tell the truth in that specific moment of the story is that he feels it is the best thing to do.</em> The excerpt shows how Huck is debating with himself what action he should take, if he should tell the truth or lie, and after considering it he decides that it looks that telling the truth will be the best option, and at least he needs to try it out since he has not a lot of experience with being honest, but he knows that when lying the chances of getting caught and being punished are big.

Galina-37 [17]

Contrastive distribution occurs when  two sounds placed in the same context produce different meanings.  This is the case in the sounds [k] and [x] . For example: <em>[kano] 'do' versus [xano] 'lose'. </em>

The same happens with the sounds [ç] and [c]. They are in constrastive distribution as in shown in the following example: <em>[çino] 'pour' versus [cino] 'move </em>

In complementary distribution, where one sound occurs the other cannot.  This is the case in  the sounds [k] and [c] The first sound  (palatal stop) appears before front vowels whereas the second sound (velar stop) appears elsewhere.

The sounds [ç] and [x] are also in complementary distribution. As in the previous example, the palatal appears before front vowels and the velar appears elsewhere

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

"Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" is a lonely poem, for our speaker finds himself far away from any other human being. He kind of digs this aloneness, however, and is glad that no one is there to watch him. We get the feeling that he'd rather be all by his lonesome in the freezing cold than back in the village. Nature helps make things even lonelier, too, for it happens to be freezing cold, snowing, and dark out there.

He's done it only by embracing his role as a survivor and speaking out to many of the 1.4 million Americans diagnosed with the disease each year. His message is about the ability to overcome, and he openly describes his own experience. "Each time I share my story people feel hopeful," he says. And he does, too. "I was living under a thundercloud. It's taken me decades to grow from the experience, but the ability to inspire people has turned a negative into a positive and opened me up."
