Answer:

The word maleficent means causing harm especially by supernatural means, and we can determine this because the root 'mal' means evil as stated, and maleficent is a term used for evil occurences (specifically in movies and stuff)

Explanation:

So you can determine that the adjective describes something evil or bad because of the use of the root :) Sorry if this isn't specific enough, but it's quite straight forward to me at least so I don't know how to elaborate if you need a more formal answer

Can someone make me a short story pls, 30 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST!!
dangina [55]

Answer:

First, don't worry about having "boring" life experiences. Most 20 year-old people haven't experienced anything worth discussing, so you're not alone. The problem you're facing is not your experiences, it's your attitude toward your experiences. 

Secondly, before getting into the incredibly long answer that I've written below (because I'm passionate about writing of this nature, and I used to think the same way when the topic of personal experience arose)... I suggest not getting too caught up in the rubric before you begin writing. Worry about "hooking" your audience after you've decided on a topic, and written the majority of your essay. A story's broader purpose often reveals itself as you write its details. You'll find the right structure as you edit the essay. Make sure you write several drafts. If you procrastinate, make sure you leave leave at least enough time to walk away from the paper a few times for an hour or so. After leaving the writing, re-read what you've wrote, and then rewrite and reorder sentences and paragraphs. I hate editing more than I can explain, but it's where great writing gets made. I promise you that you've never written something great if you haven't edited it dozens of times. I used to think I had, and then I saw what I could do when I really gave it effort. 

I once wrote a personal narrative on winning a video game tournament at some local game store in a 100 level writing class. In it, I discussed my thought process and strategy that led to the store crowning me champion. In a 300 level class, I wrote about (what was at the time) a recent accidental overdose on a highly toxic chemical. In that writing, I detailed the method of actions that made the chemical ideal to suit my needs. That information was vital for readers to understand the story, and it consumed a good amount of page space. 

What's your biggest accomplishment, or your biggest regret? If I were writing about my biggest regret, I'd likely choose the time that my brother rode his new bike to go see our grandparents, who lived just a few miles away. Prior to leaving, he asked me if I wanted to go along, but I chose, instead, to go to a friend's house and play video games. Had I known that my grandma would die within a year, I would have gone with him, and to this day, some fifteen to twenty years later, that decision haunts me. That's the entirety of the story: my brother asked me if I wanted to ride my bike with him to my grandparents; I said no; my grandma died within a year, and I have felt terrible about that decision since. That's not going to fulfill the page requirements, though, so I have to think about other things. I would discuss the disease that so rapidly deteriorated her mind and body. I would expound on the gut-wrenching guilt I feel to this day, the guilt that lumps my throat and swells my eyes, and makes me wish so badly that I could go back in time, even if only for an hour. I would explain how that has since impacted my life, the ways it changed my perception about family and loved ones. I would talk about how I feel toward our propensity to seek out "fun" and live in the moment, and how deleterious that can sometimes be. It's a very simple story, but I could probably write a book on it.

life is tough and the sooner you agree you learn how to cope withit, the better for you. Do you agree. why or why not​
mr_godi [17]

i agree because life is hard, and there are so many journeys we have to go through, and those journeys will only be easier if we understand that not everything is perfect and going to go your way.

What's the one thing in her life that Delia feels is still worth protecting and fighting for?
joja [24]
I think Delia has put up with her husband for so long because she doesn't know any other way to live. Ever since she married him, he has been beating her and after awhile, she began to familiarize it with her husband. Also, being a God-fearing woman, she does not want to divorce her husband because that is a sin in her book so she continues to put up with her husband. However she reaches her limit when he begins to threaten her home, which is what she worked her entire life for. Instead of giving in to his demands which is what she normally does, she stands up to him because her home is the one thing that matters to her in her life and she will not abide by him any longer. Delia puts up with him because she does in a way love him, regardless of how he is. I believe it's called battered woman's syndrome, Delia has been abused by him ever since she got married to him. Usually she just ignored his anger but when she decides not to save him I think she's just thinking good riddance.

I hope this helps you out!

Read the excerpt from a short story. The young docent welcomed the class to the museum, explaining that the east wing was under
Fittoniya [83]

This question is missing the answer choices. I have found them online. Since the passage is the same, I will omit it:

What technique does the author use to build suspense in the excerpt?

A. word choice

B. quickening the pace of the story

C. intentionally omitting setting details

D. making the outcome of events uncertain

Answer:

The technique the author uses to build suspense is:

C. intentionally omitting setting details

Explanation:

The setting of a story is the place where and the time when the story happens. When an author wishes to make the setting clear, he will give out details and descriptions to help readers visualize it.

<u>However, that is not what happens in the excerpt we are analyzing here. The author intentionally leaves out details to build suspense. He does not offer a description of the museum and, most importantly, of the objects inside the museum. What are the "hulking objects" he mentions? Mummies? Old statues? What do they look like? We do not know. All we know is that they cast long shadows and stretch across the floor. By describing them so poorly, the author creates suspense, leaving readers wondering about these objects and their role in the story.</u>
