Answer:
(a) Florida belongs to the Spanish.
Explanation:
Elisa Carbone's novel "Blood on the River" revolves around the story of a British teenager and his journey to James Town in America. The novel follows Samuel Collier and his journey by sea, going to the new settlement of Jamestown in America, which the British had conquered/ colonized.
Samuel was one of the many passengers on <em>"The Susan Constant"</em> making its way to America. Though he was a page of the ship's captain, Captain John Smith, Samuel also wanted to explore and go to the New World, that is America. But as they traveled along, the ship doesn't dock in Florida as the place was under the Spanish. And at that time, the Spanish and the British were all fighting to get more land colonized for their respective kings or empires.
Thus, the correct answer is option a.
Answer:
- by noticing how the character interacts with other characters
- by noticing details about what the character says, does, and thinks
- by noticing the context, and use it to make inferences about the character
- by noticing how the other characters perceive the character
Explanation:
The writer uses indirect characterization to portray the character. She/He can use this characterization to hold readers fascinated so the readers want to follow every step of character. By following every step of character, the readers will be curious to find out what will happen to the character. The indirect characterization refers to the writer's will to portray the character's personality using speech, actions and appearance.
Also, indirect characterization could help the character's behavior towards other characters and their interaction. This could help to find out the character's attributes and feelings.
The other character can perceive character more objective and notice the reason why the character does some actions or feel in some situations.
Everything the character says, does and thinks is useful to explain the character's actions or intentions. The context can help the readers to conclude and make inferences so they could better understand the character.
In the text, it is said that he got to the shore and then did everything possible to carry the mast with him, besides, everyone was sleeping so nobody could help him.
Therefore, the option that better fits with the story is option D, as he attempted to carry the gear by himself several times, despite failing to do so and falling asleep in the process.
