8 0

Answer:

Narrative story:

This strange, grawky house has the expression of someone being stared at, someone holding his breath underwater, hushed and expectant; this house is ashamed of itself, ashamed of its fantastic mansard rooftop, ashamed of its shoulder and large, awkward hands. But the man behind the easel is relentless; he is brutal as sunlight, and believes the house have done something horrible to the people who once lived here because now it is desperately empty, it must have done something to the sky because the sky, too, is utterly vacant and devoid of meaning. There are no trees or shrubs anywhere - the house must have done something against the earth. All that is present is a single pair of tracks straightening into distance. No trains pass. now stranger return to this place daily until the house suspect that the man, too, is desolate, desolate and even ashamed. soon the hose starts to stare frankly at the man. and somehow the empty white canvas slowly takes on the expression of someone who is unnerverd, someone holding his breath underwater. And then one day the man disappears.

Correct the error in the sentence. Neither Tabitha nor Miranda want to take out the garbage.​
mojhsa [17]

We are to correct the error made in the sentence "<em>Neither Tabitha nor Miranda want to take out the garbage".</em>

The error in the sentence is not adding "s" to "want"

The sentence should be "<em>Neither Tabitha nor Miranda wants to take out the </em><em>garbage</em><em>".</em>

Tabitha and Miranda are two different individuals which makes them singular nouns.

  • Plural nouns takes plural verbs

  • singular nouns takes singular verbs

singular noun: Tabitha, Miranda

singular verb: wants, takes, drives.

Which lines in this excerpt of Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol reflect the theme of compassion versus material gain?
Tpy6a [65]

Remark

I'm going to give you the two that I think it could be. Here's the first of the two.

One

"Business!" cried the Ghost, wringing its hands again. "Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, forbearance, and benevolence, were, all, my business. The dealings of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!"

Two

"At this time of the rolling year," the spectre said, "I suffer most. Why did I walk through crowds of fellow-beings with my eyes turned down, and never raise them to that blessed Star which led the Wise Men to a poor abode! Were there no poor homes to which its light would have conducted me!"

Discussion

The last one really has nothing to do with either compassion nor business. It is just as it appears. A thank you. But Scrooge is about to learn what friendship really means. The Ghosts are great educators -- all four of them.

The second last one is just Marley has to suffer through. I for one always feel very sorry for him, because he learned to late what he needed to know. But that does not answer your question.

The next one up has to do with Scrooge feeling the heat. It is just a description. The main ideas are in one and two above.

That is not relevant to business or compassion either. It is elaborating on a circumstance and does not answer your question.

The line beginning with hear me. My time is nearly gone. This too has nothing to do with your question although you may feel very sorry for Marley as I do.

Scrooge was very much dismayed ... this is just a reaction of Scrooge's. He certainly is uncomfortable. And that's about all you can say.

It held it's chain at arms length ... again a description and  a heart breaking one. I would hate to meet such a character, but it describes a result and not a what business really does to mankind.

Though the idea of business is in the first one, it does not reach into compassion and Scrooge at this point does not know what  he is in for. He's uneasy, but the ghosts have not yet dealt with him yet.

Which is it, one or two?

We have all at some point walked passed someone who is homeless or mentally ill or both and not been cheered by what we see. We've all looked at old people and how withered and unglamorous they look. At some point in our lives, we have looked at movie stars or models or well kept people and thought "That's for me." That's what two sounds like to me. It's true and it's fitting, but it's not the right answer.

The right answer is One

Marley is absolutely outraged that Scrooge could be so stupid and not see the obvious. Business is not mankind's business. Kindness and generosity and humane treatment is mankind's business.

Which denotation of "conceit"
Flauer [41]

Answer: Vanity

Explanation: Vanity is excessive pride in one’s achievements and / or appearance. In the passage, the protagonist grew more in love with herself and her pride is described as darkening, which means it became something negative. Vanity is considered negative while self-love and self-admiration are positive when you experience them in healthy amounts.
