See full question below

In the late 1700s, England was hungry for cotton. Until this

time, women and girls of the family generally did the spinning

and weaving. Then improvements were made to the spinning

wheel and loom, making them faster and more efficient. As a

result, the process became mechanized, and new textile mills

opened to meet the growing demand for cotton cloth.

2 In America in 1792, Eli Whitney recognized that the

mechanization of the cloth-making process meant a greater

demand for cotton. Cotton grew easily in the Southern states, but

the cotton bolls contained numerous small seeds that were

difficult and time-consuming to remove by hand. Unless a more

efficient way could be found to separate the seeds from the bolls,

there was little money to be made in growing cotton.

3 As a young man, Eli Whitney liked figuring out things. He studied

machines and often found ways to improve them. Whitney began to

think about the problem of removing seeds from cotton and decided

that a machine could be built to do the job efficiently.

4 The machine Whitney designed was simple, but it worked like a

charm. Cotton was fed into a machine with short wire teeth on a

revolving cylinder. The thin cotton fibers were pulled through,

leaving the seeds behind. Now, a single machine was capable of

cleaning and processing up to fifty pounds of raw cotton daily.

Answer:

The next night, after celebrating Grendel's defeat, Hrothgar and his men sleep in Heorot. Grendel's mother, angry that her son has been killed, sets out to get revenge. "Beowulf was elsewhere. Earlier, after the award of treasure, The Geat had been given another lodging"; his assistance would be absent in this battle. Grendel's mother violently kills Æschere, who is Hrothgar's most loyal fighter, and escapes.

Hrothgar, Beowulf, and their men track Grendel's mother to her lair under a lake. Unferð, a warrior who had earlier challenged him, presents Beowulf with his sword Hrunting. After stipulating a number of conditions to Hrothgar in case of his death (including the taking in of his kinsmen and the inheritance by Unferth of Beowulf's estate), Beowulf jumps into the lake, and while harassed by water monsters gets to the bottom, where he finds a cavern. Grendel's mother pulls him in, and she and Beowulf engage in fierce combat.
