1. "and busily all the night
had been heaping field and highway
with a silence deep and white"<span>
<span>
</span>The best choice to describe this excerpt would be tranquil diligence. "Busily all the night" would correspond to the image of diligence or persistent work. 
However, this work takes place in "silence deep and white" a rather tranquil setting. Suggesting the work is not terribly stressful. Therefore making tranquil diligence the appropriate choice for this excerpt. 

2. "every pine and fir and hammock
</span>wore ermine too dear for an earl
and the poorest twig on the elm-tree
was ridged inch deep with pearl"<span>

The best choice for this excerpt is <span>exquisite beauty. </span>The writer depicts images of nature such as the pines, fir, and hammock, describing them as " too dear for an earl" as well as the "poorest twig on the elm-tree" being "inch deep with pearl". These descriptions produce a sense of awe in the beauty of nature, making exquisite beauty the most appropriate choice. 

3. "Enwrapp'd in tempest and a night of storms
</span>astonish'd ocean feels the wild uproar"
<span>
Simply with the thought of "storms" and "wild uproar", we can see that powerful turbulence would be the best choice. Turbulence, itself, is the violent movement of air or water, which one would expect in a storm. 

4. "from splendid domes of first degree
</span>where ladies meet to sip their tea" 

For this last excerpt, and with process of elimination, we can see that the best choice would be lavish affluence. Looking closer, it is apparent that this choice does match well with the excerpt itself. Affluence suggests a great deal of wealth and lavish suggests something grand. The "splendid domes of first degree" provide the reader with this sense of grandeur. Women gathering and sipping tea creates an image of high standing and wealth, providing the affluent aspect. 

Hope that helps :)

Read the excerpt from Part 2 of The Odyssey by Homer. We would entreat you, great Sir, have a care for the gods' courtesy; Zeus
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

This excerpt proves that Odysseus causes his crew's demise:

D. by revealing his ignorant assumptions.

Explanation:

The excerpt we are analyzing here belongs to the epic poem The Odyssey. The hero of the story, Odysseus, is talking to a Cyclops, but his ignorant assumptions about the Cyclops's kind leads to his crew's demise.<u> Odysseus assumes the Cyclopes, just like humans, fear and respect the gods. That's why he appeals to that notion when he says, "Zeus will avenge the unoffending guest." However, to his sad surprise, the Cyclops is immediately angered by those words, revealing he could not care less about the gods. The Cyclopes are clearly an arrogant kind, believing they "have more force by far." Since Odysseus did not know that, his words cause a tragedy.</u>

Describe Wiesel's opinion of his fellow Sighet citizens. Find and write a line from the text the supports your statement.
Naddika [18.5K]
The people of Sighet, like many Jewish people in Europe at the time, are naive and unable to believe the atrocities being committed by the Nazis.

When Moshe returns to Sighet and tells everyone about what he experienced, they are unable to believe him. Instead of believing him, the people of Sighet say he is crazy. If they were to believe him, they would have to admit the fact they were in danger as well. They do not believe until it is far too late to leave.

Foreshadowing is a literary device in which a writer gives an advance hint of what is to come later in the story. How does the a
mr_godi [17]

In the story called, “The Monkey’s Paw,” the author, W.W Jacobs, uses foreshadowing to add suspense. When Mrs. White asks Sergeant Major if any one else made a wish he says, “Yes. I don't know what the first two were, but the third was for death." The author also uses foreshadowing when Mrs. White jokes and says to wish for four arms Sergeant Major "with a look of alarm on his face," catches Mr. White's arm. 'If you must wish,' he said gruffly, 'wish for something sensible.'" Foreshadowing is also used when Sergeant Major is telling his feelings about the monkey’s paw. It states, “‘Pitch it on the fire again like a sensible man.’” Here he is warning Me. White of the consequences if he makes a wish. From this dialogue I readers can infer that something bad is going to happen.
