The answer is C) urged

c) urged

In this sentence, exhorted is the action of the elder traveler. The use of the word "onward" suggests that the people have been traveling a long distance and still have a long distance to go. We also know that the elder wants the other traveler with him "to make good speed" or hurry up. Since exhorted is a verb, we need another verb to act as a synonym. Worthy is not a verb so it is eliminated immediately. Also, helped can be easily eliminated because the story does not make either person sound as though they'd be generous or helpful. The elder traveler does not sound as though he would not beg for anything. The correct answer is urged.

Gemiola [76]

Please find attached to this answer, a hand drawn diagram

Answer:

12.84°

Explanation:

To calculate Angle of Depression, we calculate using Trigonometric function or ratio. The Trigonometric function or ratio to be used based on the diagram is  Sine

sin θ = Opposite side/Hypotenuse

θ = Angle of Depression

Opposite side = Height  = 200 feet

Adjacent side = Distance of the flying bird to the observer = 900 feet

sin θ = 200feet/ 900 feet

θ = sin-¹ (2/9) or arcsin(2/9)

θ = 12.839588407°

Approximately = 12.84°

Therefore, Angle of Depression = 12.84°

Which aspect of the following poem might imagists most admire?
sasho [114]
Imagists believed that poems should have "no ideas but in things." In other words, they would described powerful images, and instead of explaining what those images meant, they would let the reader decide what the meaning or value of those images might be. 

Imagists were especially fond of inviting the reader to recognize how very different sorts of images can actually be really similar. Ezra Pound famously did this with his short poem "In a Station of the Metro," which associates "faces in the crowd" with "petals on a wet, black bough."

The poem in your question does something very similar by associating the cat's footprints in the snow with the blossoming flowers of a plum tree. The writer wants you to recognize the odd visual similarity of the footprints and the flowers, ideally to show how there's a kind of cosmic connectedness in the world by (because two very different things end up being really similar).

That's why I think your best answer is A.
