Speaker's brave conquests are mentioned or at least cited in the following options from the excerpt:
- <em>Option 1</em>, in which he tells about his innumerable combats he had won.
- <em>Option 4 </em>also celebrates his fight with Grendel.
- In <em>Option 6</em>, the speaker is showing us how valiant his action in the field of war can be.
Therefore, I assume, from my understanding, that these are the three statements from the provided excerpt which focus on the narrators heroic accomplishments.
Answer:
What prompted this reaction in Daisy was that she realized Tom's words, and that she could never leave her husband for Gatsby.
Explanation:
Daisy had a great love for Gatsby but the fact that Tom had singled him out as a common bootlegger made her realize the consequences this would bring.
She was actually scared by those words which caused her to stay with Tom even though she didn't love him.
All this happens in the discussion that Tom and Gatsby have where they fight for the love of Daisy, and that's where Tom reveals about the investigation he made about Gatsby and his drugstores, which leaves Daisy terrified, and realizes that Gatbsy couldn't win the confrontation.
Answer:
B. The hunter in front uses the elbow carry.
Explanation:
The safer option would be that the hunter in the front uses the elbow carry. Letter “A” is incorrect because if the hunter in the middle pulls the trigger it could hit the one in the front or even the one in the back. Letter “C” is incorrect because is the most unsafe, since every single hunter would have their gun pointing forward and by accident, they could shoot each other. Letter “D” could be correct, but the correct position if it is a walking single file is that the hunter in the front needs to be in elbow carry while the other two hunters should be in shoulder carry. Those are the reasons why the correct answer is the letter “B”.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The action is advanced with this detail because it becomes clear that not everything in the park is going perfectly well for a picnic. Before we read about the rain, everything is relaxing and both the adults and children are enjoying the afternoon.
With the darkening of the sky and the onset of the rain, it can be understood that the picnic has ended and a potentially fierce storm is approaching.
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Which is the best paraphrase of the passage?
It's always cloudy where the Men of Winter live.
It's always misty where the Men of Winter live.
It's always dark where the Men of Winter live.
It's always sunny where the Men of Winter live.
Answer:
The best paraphrase of the passage is:
C. It's always dark where the Men of Winter live.
Explanation:
This question can be quite tricky, and here is why: the words "mist" and "cloud" are explicitly written in the passage. Of course, our first impulse is to imagine a cloudy or misty place and to choose either option A or option B, or even both. However,<u> we need to keep on reading to fully understand the passage. Notice the speaker says, "Never the flaming eye of Helios lights on those men..." Helios is nothing more than the personification of the sun in Greek mythology. When he says its flaming eye never lights, he basically means his light never shines on those Men of Winter. No light means it is dark. It may be dark due to the excessive mist and clouds, but it is dark nonetheless because the light can't shine through. That is why letter C seems to be the best option.</u>
