The correct answer is A) The author repeats words and employs parallelism.

The statement that best describes the tone of this passage is "The author repeats words and employs parallelism. "

We can see how parallelism is used in the sentences above. Parallelism is a grammatical term to arrange words of the same syntactical construction in phrases or clauses. It is used to have a parallel structure or the same structure.

The other options of the question are B) The author feels frustrated for the farmers, C) The author uses the word "creep" to emphasize that debt is sinister, and D) The author uses descriptive words to show what the farmers have done.

n part two of Trifles, the symbol of the broken birdcage best supports the theme that women often endure unjust acts in male-dom
shusha [124]

Answer: In part two of Trifles, the symbol of the broken birdcage best supports the theme that women <u>often endure unjust acts in male-dominated societies.</u>

Explanation: The finding of the broken cage and the dead bird lets the women in the play deduce that Minnie's husband had broken the cage door in order to kill the bird. Thus, the signs of violence in the broken cage are a reflection of the oppressive act that this woman suffered from her husband.

The Tempest, Lines 9-19: Based on the exchange between the boatswain and passengers in these lines, infer how the boatswain feel
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

The Tempest written by Wiilliam Shakespeare and first performed in 1611, is the story of an exiled ruler.

Explanation:

In Act I, Scene i, we are introduced with the character "Boatswain" a commoner and the noble characters, whose names are not mentioned but introduced later in the play. The story begins with the characters stuck in the middle of the raging storm. Boatswain and his crew, in the lines 9-19 are trying to save the ship and commands the nobles to go under-deck.

<em>"ALONSO </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Good Boatswain, have care. Where’s the Master? </em>

<em>Play the men</em>

<em>BOATSWAIN </em>

<em> </em>

<em>I pray now, keep below."</em>

<em> </em>

The nobles get offended by the rudeness of the commoner "Boatswain."

<em>GONZALO </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Good, yet remember whom thou hast aboard.</em>

Boatswain's main motive is to save the ship regardless of who his passengers are.

<em>"BOATSWAIN </em>

<em> </em>

<em>None that I more love than myself. You are a councilor. If you can command these elements to silence and work the peace of the present, we will not hand a rope more. Use your authority. If you cannot, give thanks you have lived so long and make yourself ready in your cabin for the mischance of the hour, if it so hap.—Cheerly, good hearts!—Out of our way, I say."</em>

Write the words in brackets in the appropriate forms of the future tense.
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

A Wonderful Plan Allison and Nate

A brother and sister, live together in an apartment. They attend university in the same city, so they live together to share expenses. Their parents live in a different city, but they are visiting their children this weekend. In fact, they will arrive at the airport in about an hour!

Nate and his older sister talk about all the arrangements they made for their parents’ visit. “Okay, so we should go to the concert tonight, right?” Nate asks. “That is right,” Allison replies. “We are seeing the orchestra at 7:00pm.” “Are we going to the museum tomorrow, then?” her brother asks. “Yes, I reserved tickets for the special exhibition on mummies,” Allison says. “Are you coming with us or are you meeting with your study group?” “No, I am definitely going with you to the museum,” Nate answers. “I love mummies! All right, so we are picking Mom and Dad up in about an hour.” “Yes, I will leave in five minutes,” Allison says. Nate is confused. “What do you mean? We are both going, right?” “Of course not!” Allison laughs. “Look at this place! I was very busy making all the reservations and getting all the tickets. We did not clean at all!” “Oh no, you are right!” Nate looks at the messy living room and remembers all the dirty dishes in the kitchen. “What will we do?” “Do not worry, my dear brother,” Allison says, smiling. “You know I always have a plan.” “Is a cleaning service coming?” Nate asks. “Are Mom and Dad staying in a hotel?” “No, silly!” Allison replies. “No one will come to help us clean.” “Then what is your wonderful plan? What are we doing to get the apartment clean? Mom and Dad are arriving in just forty-five minutes!”

Now Nate will get really nervous. “Not to worry,” Allison reassures her brother. “I am driving to the airport to pick them up, and then we are all going to a new art gallery that just opened. We are taking a guided tour for an hour.” “How does an art gallery tour get the house clean?” Nate wonders. “That does not clean the house! Remember that you will stay here, little brother,” Allison says, giving him a hug before she walks to the door. “This way you will have lots of time! I will go out to have fun with Mom and Dad because I am a wonderful daughter, and you will stay here to clean the whole apartment because you are a wonderful son!”

Explanation:

Future tense is a type of verb that describes an event that is yet to happen, but expected to happen in future. One of the commonest examples of a future tense is adding the word "will" followed by the event. For example,  I will wash the plates later.
