Read the passage. A 40-ton creature, spinning around and around in the water, was coming right at my boat. We could hear its fin

s slapping the water with each revolution. The brute exhaled, and salty water sprayed us before it dove again. The sight of its tail flashing past and barely missing the boat sent shivers down my spine. When it came to the surface again, we could have counted the barnacles on its enormous head. What type of animal is the writer describing? A. shark B. seal C. penguin D. whale

A whale. (because of the weight, the fins, the fact that it sprayed salty water and the barnacles on the head)

The answer would be a whale. A penguin is out because it has no tail to splash with. Plus, only a whale would be 40 tons and have barnacles on it.

Slav-nsk [51]
Rosaline exemplifies false love because she is only briefly mentioned and never shown, and while Romeo made claims that he loved her, she's forgotten almost immediately after Juliet makes an appearance. Juliet is an example of true love, because Romeo devoted his heart and ultimately his life to her. He even planned to denounce his last name if it meant they could be together

In passage 2, How does the authors introduction of sir kay in the underlined sentences on page 4 relate to what comes earlier in
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

<u><em>It contradicts the characterization of knights as mindless but continues to uphold traditional notions of knighthood. </em></u>

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

It is of interest to note the expression <em>"he got up and played his hands like a major- and took every trick", </em>this was not the earlier characterization of knights. They were often portrayed as been mindless who like to bully others, etc, but here Sir Kay was seen as a premier warrior, a major indeed.
