Answer:

Grendel is depicted as "bent on destruction and bulging with rage" which already begins to depict Grendel as a monster. The preconceived notion that only villains and monsters destroy objects leads any reader to automatically assume Grendel is a monster, no matter if they have read the entirety of the story or not. Beowulf, however, is praised throughout the battle scene. The author notes Beowulf's wisdom and bravery constantly. These are traits that are always associated with the hero of the story. An author will hardly ever showcase a hero's flaws in a negative light, and Beowulf is no exception. He is put against a character with "claws of the heathen suited for slashing in horrible slaughter". With these stakes put against him, there's no way he cannot be seen as a hero going against such a creature.

Explanation: Please put this into your own words it's the least you can do.

The passage lists a few things which would lend towards the idea of him being a monster. First, it says "god's anger bare he." referring, presumably, to the abrahamic god famous for his wrath, showing that Grendel was exhibiting intense rage. Second, it uses the sentence "The monster intended some one of earthmen in the hall-building grand to entrap and make way with" which, while a written a little backwards by today's grammar rules, says that he is planning to take hold of and kidnap some of the men in the hall, something only a monster could do.<span />

Which of the sets of adjectives correctly supplies the positive, comparative, and superlative forms of the words?
saw5 [17]
You have to understand positive, comparative, and superlative forms of adjectives to do this. The positive form is the simple form of an adjective as applied to the sentence. The comparative form refers to the form of an adjective that relates it to other possible intensities of the adjective; it it used to say to what extent an adjective applies. The superlative form states the adjective in the most prominent extent. Alright, now let's look at the answers.

Answer A is incorrect because it should be "cheap, cheaper, and cheapest."

Answer B is incorrect because it should be "drowsy, drowsier, and drowsiest."

Answer C is correct.

Answer D is incorrect because is should be "troublesome, more troublesome, and most troublesome."

Answer: C. good, better, best

Which statement describes an effect of poisonous gases used in combat during World War I? Poisonous gases blistered soldiers’ sk
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Poisonous gases blistered soldiers' skin, eyes, and lungs.

Explanation:

Poisonous gases are extremely toxic. Many soldiers in WWI suffered injuries due to it, such as the ones listed above. We can also use the process of elimination to identify the answer.

❌<u>Choice 2</u>: Poisonous gases brought an end to trench warfare.

  • This isn't the case. If anything, the gasses brought trench warfare more to the forefront. Also, trench warfare was used in WWII, so it's illogical to claim that it ended during WWI.

❌<u>Choice 3</u>: Poisonous gases melted weapons and other armaments.

  • There is no evidence of this.

❌<u>Choice 4</u>: Poisonous gases caused explosions in the presence of gunpowder.

  • Once again, no evidence supports this. Also, the main purpose of poisonous gas was not to cause explosions, regardless.
