Hello there,
Why did the author choose to provide this fictional account of Iqbal Masih, who was a real person? Check all that apply.
Story:
My first impression was that he was handsome. Then I thought, No, he isn't really good-looking. But he had such eyes. They were sweet and deep and they weren't afraid. He was standing at the threshold of the workroom with Hussain Khan's enormous hand gripping his arm and we were all looking at him. The fourteen of us child-slaves plus Karim, all observing another slave. He was one of the many who had come and gone over the years, but we felt that somehow, this new boy was different. He looked around at us, one by one. He was sad, of course, like anyone who has been away from home for a long time, like anyone who is little more than a slave, like anyone who can't imagine what will become of him.

The Thornfield section is a kind of a trial for Jane, spiritual as much as carnal and sexual. Up until that point, she had never fallen in love. It happens to her now, but this love is not just another romantic love story. Her beloved is almost a ruffian, with violent fits and eccentric character - not at all handsome, but extremely passionate and therefore very sexual. Nevertheless, Jane senses a spiritual attachment to him, as her soulmate, which makes this relationship worth all the effort in her eyes.
On the other hand, Bronte juxtaposes the shiny, brilliant word of aristocratic, sensual bodies to the gloomy and stark spirituality of Jane Eyre. First of all, there is Rochester's story about his former mistress, Adele's mother, who was a beautiful, adulterous seductress. On the other hand, there is Rochester's noble company that he brings to Thornfield, particularly Blanche Ingram, who is also beautiful and apparently a very desirable match. She is Jane's absolute counterpart, and that is precisely why Rochester eventually casts her away to propose to Jane.
Here is how Jane sees her spiritual attachment to Rochester, observing him in the company of his noble friends:
"<span>He is not to them what he is to me," I thought: "he is not of their kind. I believe he is of mine;—I am sure he is,—I feel akin to him,—I understand the language of his countenance and movements: though rank and wealth sever us widely, I have something in my brain and heart, in my blood and nerves, that assimilates me mentally to him. […] I must, then, repeat continually that we are for ever sundered:—and yet, while I breathe and think I must love him."</span>
Answer:
Odysseus has all of the qualifications as an epic leader. He is wise, and determined.
" I had touched the spot when sudden fear stayed me: if I killed him we perished there as well, for we could never move his ponderous doorway slab aside. So we were left to groan and wait for morning."
This proves that he knows what is right, and they he is determined to do what he believes is best for his crew. Odysseus knows that if he kills the Cyclops, then he and his men will not be able to go inside the cave.
I would assume the blank would be "get" or "return."
Answer:
- re·con·nois·sance | ri-ˈkä-nə-zən(t)s \ noun
Explanation:
The dictionary entry which most aptly backs the meaning of the word 'reconnaissance' would be 're·con·nois·sance | ri-ˈkä-nə-zən(t)s \ noun' as it correctly describes the pronunciation of the word and its part of speech. <u>The word stands for 'the act of scouting or exploring to gain information' and it is used as the element of the noun phrase 'storm reconnaissance missions' which is acting as the object in the sentence</u>. Thus, this suggests that the these acts are pursued for gaining more information about the storms.
