General zaroff I believe because he is an adventurous hunter
Answer:
First-hand accounts offer a wide variety of truthful and reliable information.
Explanation:
In addition, an in-depth analysis of the information can be carried out, since descriptive and real data are available that allow accurate and reliable conclusions to be obtained.
The first-hand stories make us live through the situations or events that occurred in a certain place or time, the characters come to life, therefore they are more credible than other stories told by people who were not present.
I believe the correct answers are:
- an Indo-European language of Germanic origin: this is definitely true as old English (as well as modern English) belongs to the Germanic group of languages, along with Scandinavian languages (Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Icelandic), German, Yiddish, etc. And all of them are Indo-European languages
- depended on inflections to indicate gender: this statement is also true. Old English, also known as Anglo-Saxon English, used different suffixes to denote the gender of a noun. So if a noun was female, it would have a different suffix from that of male/neuter gender. This has mostly disappeared from modern English.
- depended on inflections to indicate grammatical form: this statement is also true. Old English used different suffixes to denote the form of a word, such as the tense, or possessive form, etc. This is something that modern English has kept as well, and you can see it in -ed suffix for past tense, or 's used for possessive form.
These three options are definitely correct, whereas 'similar to modern English' is definitely incorrect because they almost look nothing alike. I'm not sure about the mixture of many languages though - it had many dialects, but ultimately it was one Germanic/Viking language, so I don't think other languages influenced it a lot at the time - that came later with Middle English.
The correct option is the first option: the similarities in the wording.
When you want to compare passages, you have to focus on similarities between them.
The other options are not correct because the origins of the authors and the dates the texts were written are not relevant when comparing PASSAGES. Moreover, the last option is not correct because it highlights the differences the passages have and the instruction states you should COMPARE the passages. This means doing the exact opposite of spotting differences.
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
Although A seems like a great answer as well, D is a statement that only gives one side of a story. You and I both don't know the man, but the speaker of the sentence has already gotten you and I to think about one thing: The man's lack of intelligence.
