Answer:

B. "Cold comforts set between us, things to share."

Explanation:

The correct answers, which is letter 'b', best describes their current emotional situation between son and mother, the 'clean water' for instance, represents something for them to be happy about, nevertheless, the "cold comforts" is a little reward for what they both suffer.  The first option, letter A, refers to the idea of him wishing for, 'soldering' literally means to join two pieces of metal together, so this allows to understand that this was not a connection, but a wish. As for the last two options, means that even at his mother’s death, the son keeps alive this special relationship in an ambiance  of sadness.

stepladder [879]
The author uses very vague and mysterious phrases such as "as the website had promised" and " unlock the door with the key I had been sent.". Because he doesn't reveal who or what sent him/ brought him to that home, we question why he is there and what is going to happen next (Good or Bad). This can be seen in movies too. Typically writers will leave out key information to make us think and wonder. Hope that helped! :))

How might a movie trailer and an essay introduction be similar? What are the purposes of both and what do they do for the viewer
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Trailers and essay introductions can be very, very similar. Essay introductions just give a very brief overview of what the essay will be about, just like how trailers give a little insight as to what the movie will be about. Neither essay introductions nor movie trailers give direct facts and information about either the essay topic or whole plot of the movie. The purpose it to mainly just "hook" the reader/viewer and make them want to either read the essay or watch the movie just based on the introduction or trailer.

Hope this helps.

Write a paragraph about the costs and benefits of having insurance.
andrezito [222]
The cost of insurance can be quite high especially for life insurance if obtained when one has a medical condition but can at least alleviate anxiety of spouses who worry about their financial security if their partner dies early. because then they can get financial help to pay for mortgages/rent etc. Also, for car insurance, the premiums can be high but if one gets in an accident, especially if one does not have fault, then the cost of repairs and some medical treatment will be paid.
