Answer:

Almost all of the people in the room (the actress, the old banker, the busy socialite and the senior government officials), were shocked when the news came through. They had been taken hostage. Each one of them thought, <em>it cannot be happening to me.</em> The feeling did not sink in immediately. The shock was not that they had been taken hostage, but the fact that it was a party they had attended as a goodwill gesture to help a friend. Yet it proved to be the biggest setback of their lives. The actress started panicking. She paced the room up and down all the while murmuring to herself. This agitated the banker. <em>One of us will get killed if the woman does not check her emotions</em>, he thought.

The reaction of others when Theseus and Arthur retrieve the sword. Thus, option "B" is correct.

<h3>What is the story of "How Theseus Lifted the Stone" and How Arthur was chosen king"?</h3>

According to "How Theseus Lifted the Stone" , the story is told of a young boy, the son of Aegeus and Aethra who was destiny-bound to move a rock and prove that he was actually from royalty.

In "How Arthur was chosen king", a young Prince Arthur has to complete the task of removing a magical sword from a stone to prove himself, in order to be king.

This draws on the tension of the first story by making Arthur prove himself by getting the word out.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 2.

Write a personal narrative essay that describes a significant experience that has shaped your identity. Develop the narrative th
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

1. I want to write in prose, a narrative with a first person point of view. A short and direct story.

2. My audience will be students between 16 and 24 years old.

3. My theme will be the importance of resting and eating well.

4. My purpose is to share my experience of how the overload of tasks was harmful for me.

Explanation:

During my first year of college I felt very excited to start this phase of my life and was very anxious about the opportunities that came up at that time, but the situation was more difficult than I think. The amount of academic activities and the need to find a job took all my time, to the point that, in order to cope with all this, I started to neglect my diet and my sleep period.

It was Monday, 10 pm, I had just arrived from my part-time job and had 3 essays to deliver the next day, in the morning. As soon as I arrived, I had eaten a packet of cookies for lunch (this had been my lunch for days, as it was quick and practical).

"You look awful" said my roommate.

"Thank you," I said, ironically, as I threw a pillow at her.

Sierra and I had a good relationship, which allowed me to have peace of mind in the apartment we shared, which was a good thing after all.

"I'm going out to eat, do you want to go?" She said.

"No, thanks, I think you went to order a plaza later." I replied, as I saw the whole environment around me spin and Sierra's voice became more and more difficult to hear.

"Are you okay? Are you really looking weird? I can stay here if you ..."

I couldn't hear what she was saying, just being able to pay attention to the environment that was getting darker and darker, until I completely lost consciousness.

I don't know how long I was unconscious, but I woke up in a hospital room, where the nurse explained that I had a faint due to dehydration, malnutrition and probably lack of sleep. I was a little embarrassed, until the doctor arrived bringing my country with him, explaining what happened to me and how I should avoid going through it again.

The answer was simple, I had to respect the limitations of my body and eat and rest so that I could handle all of my responsibilities.

What does this excerpt from "Arrangement in Black and White" suggest about the woman's behavior? Select all that apply.
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

This answer is not full, the options are missing. They are as following:

  • A. She wants other people to see her.
  • B. She feels genuine admiration for the man.
  • C. She exaggerates her actions in order to prove a point.
  • D. She is more intent on pleasing herself than she is on pleasing the man.

The answers are A, C and D.

<u>From the excerpt we can see the woman is exaggerating her movements and actions, which is most clearly seen in the last line "She spoke with great distinctness, moving her lips meticulously, as if in parlance with the deaf."</u>

<u>She is exaggerating her movement of the lips and accenting of the words in order to try to prove what she says and underline its importance, even to hide her real thoughts. </u>

<u>We also see she does this for her own enjoyment and exposure with the line "extended her hand at the length of her arm and held it so for all the world to see, until the Negro took it, shook it, and gave it back to her."</u>

<u>With this she is trying to draw attention to her pleasure, to the man taking her hand, to show how she is graceful and polite, and to better her social status. </u>

Why is the sentence “so there was nothing to fear from them” (lines 73-74) ironic? What does it foreshadow?
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The line is ironic for even after the family of Don Lupe had gone, either dead or the children taken away to far away lands, he still had to live a life in hiding, "like a leper", scared of any new stranger in town.

It foreshadows the event that will be upon him, being hunted and eventually tortured and killed by the son of the very man he had killed.

Explanation:

The short story "Tell Them Not To Kill Me" by Juan Rulfo is a story about an accused man on death penalty. The accused Juvencio Nava had murdered his neighbor Don Lupe over a mere trifling issue of their cattle grazing in the other person's land. And for this crime, he had been guarding himself from being detected, which after the death of the victim's wife and the young children taken to far away place to their relatives, he had thought himself safe from any retribution.

The line <em>"so there was nothing to fear from them"</em> is said by Juvencio while recounting the past years he had lived during the murder. He stated that with the death of Lupe's wife due to grief, and the children being taken to stay with relatives in a far away places, he has nothing to worry about anymore. He could easily live his life without the fear of being hunted.

But this speech is ironic for it actually happened in the opposite way. He had to live in hiding for many years, and would flee to the mountains whenever someone new came into town.

The line also foreshadows the future events where he will be captured and killed by the son of the murdered man. The colonel who had him captured has come to pass judgement on him. As it turns out, he was the son of Don Lupe, and had wanted to exact revenge on his father's killer. In the end, Guadalupe Terreros' son had avenge his father's murder.
