2) Campfires
3) Tale
4) Orchard
5) Scoops
6) Legends
7) Adventures
8) Wilderness
9) Beginnings
10) Ability
Explanation:
1) Ordinary and imaginary sound the same. Also, 'imaginary' character makes more sense.
2) These stories are told around 'campfires' is more appropriate and sounds a little like cameras.
3) Tail is a body part of animals so this is completely wrong. The author means a story here so tale is the word that fits well.
4) Orchard of apples is correct because a garden full of trees is called an orchard.
5) Holes are scooped out and not scared out.
6) Legend is the right word that fits here. Also, ledges and legend sound almost similar.
7) Alligators should be replaced with adventures because the author is basically talking about adventures.
8) Adventures are usually done in wilderness and not windowsills.
9) The author is trying to talk about the history of the countries so beginnings is the right word.
10) The talent of telling story is better described by the word ability instead of enemy.
The correct answer is option 2: The narration describes the main character's thoughts.
This question comes from the book <em>"The Cruisers"</em> written by Walter Dean Myers and published in 2010.
Throughout the story, the main character, Zander, expresses his thoughts as shown in the following quote from chapter 1: "<em>I wasn’t worried about Da Vinci being fourth, or even about being suspended. I was worried about being dropped from the school altogether</em>".
I'm not sure I'm reading this right but if the question is "what is a synonym for dictated" then, "ordered" could be a good word to use.
sorry if I read the question wrong!
Based on the stage directions, An alien
does "Figure One"
Explanation:
Maple Street is full of children playing and adults chatting as the shadow falls, followed by a blanket and a burst of colour. Everybody knows, however they believe r]]] and easily restart their tasks. The inhabitants quickly learned that their electricity had gone off, impacting stoves, lawn mowers, vehicles and computers. They're meeting in the street to address the case. Pete Van Horn, pounded in his bib caps, volunteers to move across to Floral Lane, on the next lane, and see whether it's influenced as well. His friends, Steve Brand and Charlie Farnsworth, plan to go to town, but Tommy, a neighbourhood child, encourages them not to go.
Tommy has read the stories of an alien invasion that has created similar issues, so he claims the aliens don't want anybody out of the driveway. Tommy continues that in the plot, aliens are acting as a family that seems to be human, but are explorers, and the power loss that they create is intended to divide the community. The adults are incredulous, assuring him that the trigger is normal, probably the product of sunspots. Charlie wondered whether Pete Van Horn was able to make it to Floral Road.
Answer:
2. The short story "The Lady, or The Tiger" by Frank R. Stanton revolves around the story of how a barbaric judgement of justice is carried out on the main convicts.
Explanation:
2. The short story "The Lady or The Tiger" by Frank R. Stanton revolves around the barbaric display or relay of judgement on a young man for being in love with the princess of the kingdom. The King's decree of passing judgement by letting the accused chose between two doors further intensifies the conflict and suspense.
Though the author did not specify the ending of the story, we can best infer that the right door that the princess led her lover to chose will be that of the tiger. This is based on the reading that from the story where the narrator mentions that the princess had often seen in her dreams the young man opening the door that led to the tiger. But more than this is the horrific knowledge of what will be if he chose the other door that led to the beautiful maiden.
<em>"How in her grievous reveries had she gnashed her teeth, and torn her hair, when she saw his start of rapturous delight as he opened the door of the lady! How her soul had burned in agony when she had seen him rush to meet that woman, with her flushing cheek and sparkling eye of triumph; when she had seen him lead her forth, his whole frame kindled with the joy of recovered life; when she had heard the glad shouts from the multitude, and the wild ringing of the happy bells; when she had seen the priest, with his joyous followers, advance to the couple, and make them man and wife before her very eyes; and when she had seen them walk away together upon their path of flowers, followed by the tremendous shouts of the hilarious multitude, in which her one despairing shriek was lost and drowned!"</em>
This whole passage seems to deny that the princess will allow her lover to chose the door that led to the maiden, for she has had terrible nightmares that show him happy in choosing the maiden and getting married. Rather than observe her lover be married to another maiden, we can fairly say that she will chose to lead him to the tiger. Furthermore, the statement that " <em>The girl was lovely, but she had dared to raise her eyes to the loved one of the princess; and, with all the intensity of the savage blood transmitted to her through long lines of wholly barbaric ancestors, she hated the woman who blushed and trembled behind that silent door"</em> amply suggests that she will lead the young lover to the tiger.
