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.

Read each quotation from the story, and then decide whether the author is using direct or indirect characterization.
babymother [125]

<span>In those quotations from the story, author is using both direct and indirect characterization. Direct characterization is when author directly states what characters are like and indirect characterization shows personality of a character through speech, looks, actions, thought and effects on others. In the first quotation author is using direct characterization through stating how character looks and states her actions – Della is slender and she has mastered the arts. In second quotation author also uses direct characterization through looks and actions – Madam is large, too white, chilly and she hardly looks at ‘Sofronie. In the third quotation, Madam’s characterization is indirectly shown through her action and speech – she bidded twenty dollars by lifting her hand. An in the fourth quotation indirect characterization is shown through actions – he looked the watch on the sly.</span>

Read this sentence from the passage.
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Hello. You did not enter the answer options, but the term "previously perused paperbacks" is an euphemism for the term "softcover books" or "flimsy books".

Explanation:

Euphemism is a figure of speech that is used to relieve a term, that is, euphemism allows the author to use a term that softens the sentence and has a milder and more pleasant meaning, to replace another term, which is more aggressive , can cause pelomic and discomfort to the reader.

In this case, we can say that the author uses the term "previously perused paperbacks" as an euphemism when referring to books with a soft, soft and rigid cover.
