When you desrcibe something in a passage, it helps the reader understand and visualize what happened or what is happening. For example, when Equanio talked about the fish he described them jumping and flying across the ship. With that, the readers can see what is happening inside theiir mind. This makes them more attracted to reading the excerpt even more, and gives them a good understanding about the setting of the story.

During our passage, I first saw flying fishes, which surprised me very much; they used frequently to fly across the ship, and many of them fell on the deck. I also now first saw the use of the quadrant; I had often with astonishment seen the mariners make observations with it, and I could not think what it meant. They at last took notice of my surprise; and one of them, willing to increase it, as well as to gratify my curiosity, made me one day look through it. The clouds appeared to me to be land, which disappeared as they passed along. This heightened my wonder; and I was now more persuaded than ever, that I was in another world, and that every thing about me was magic

How does Shakespeare's use of triumph instead of victory
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

A. It shows that Cassius thinks that Brutus is too optimistic.

Explanation:

Shakespeare's use of triumph instead of victory in the excerpt in the passage affects its meaning because it shows that Cassius thinks Brutus is too optimistic, that is, Brutus expect they would win the war.

Cassius is trying to ask Brutus if he could face the humiliation of losing the battle and be led through the street of Time as trophy.

This means that there are two consequences of fighting a war, either to lose or to win.

Loosing means to be paraded as trophy and winning means to parade the losers as trophy.

STatiana [176]

Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

She wants to gain control of the situation.

She is shocked by his insults.

She has sympathy for the fellow Austrian.

She plans to confess her crimes.

Answer:

She wants to gain control of the situation.

Explanation:

In the text above we can see that the officer is totally out of control, shouting and making a scandal in front of Miep, who remains calm and focused, without reacting to all the shouting that the officer is emitting. Miep does this to keep control of the situation in her hands and to stand in favor of her actions, showing courage and showing that she doesn’t tackle anything, more than that, when taking control of the situation Miep shows that she is correct and that there is no need for despair and scandals when you are correct.
