Answer:
The main contrasts between Andrew and Robert are presented with the help of these attributes of their characters.
<em>Andrew is content to stay on the family farm, while Robert dreams of traveling.</em>
and
<em>Andrew enjoys working the land when Robert prefers reading and thoughts of adventure.</em>
Explanation:
Andrew and Robert are two brothers in Eugene O'Neill's play "Beyond the Horizon"
They are very similar in some attribute, while in some other attributes, they are at opposite poles from each other.
Andrew is described as on who has much interest in the fields, he takes all the pain to keep family's farm and fields in good shape. Robert, on the other hand, is totally indifferent to what is happening at farm and fields. He is characterized as having a poetic and delicate nature - reading books, and thinking about adventurous journeys occupy much of his time.
There is no contrast between Andrew and Robert on the bases of caring for their family. They both care much for their family.
Andrew is not resentful about Robert leaving the farm. He just says that everyone at farm including Andrew himself will miss him a lot.
Edgar Allen Poe's validity and reliability on the Spanish Inquisition can be made clearly through the text in "The Pit and the Pendulum". The narrator is valid because his story relates to the history of the Spanish Inquisition but unreliable because of his mental state. The Koch Blog says, " During the reign of the Catholic Monarchs, several thousand new Christians were condemned..." The narrator in the story was judged, put through hell, and tortured enough that he just wanted to end his life. As John Calvin states, "The torture of a bad conscience is the hell of a living soul."
Answer:
The correct answer is <u>D</u>: Chronological order.
Explanation:
In this excerpt, the author describes the period of dinosaurs, that is, about 250 million years ago to 65 million years ago and it as divided into three periods. The information of the excerpt is organized chronologically, in order of time.
The author divides the period of dinosaurs into:
1. The Triassic Period (from 250 to 205 million years ago)
2. The Jurassic Period (from 205 to 138 million years ago)
3. The Cretaceous Period (from 138 to 65 million years ago)
1. flying
As the directions state, a participle is a verb. Both flying and headed are verbs. However, headed is used as an action verb in the sentence. It is what the geese are doing. Flying is an adjective describing the geese as "flying by". You should be able to cross out the participial phrase and the sentence will still make sense as in "The geese are headed south for the winter."
2. B. Clapping wildly.
Clapping wildly is the participial phrase. It describes the audience. Option C contains the main verb of the sentence "shouted" so this is not a participial phrase. Option D has an infinitive "to come".
3. cat
The participial phrase in the sentence is "hearing the footsteps of its owner". The cat is what hears the footsteps.
