Answer:

  • the first sentence:  narration
  • the second sentence: both

Explanation:

A narrative text is the account made by someone of something, a sequence of events. On the other hand, a descriptive text is one that details in detail the aspects of a certain place, event, person, object or animal. The purpose of the author is precisely to convey the impressions, qualities, sensations, characteristics and observations about what is being detailed. one way of identifying a narrative text is the presence of adjectives.

Based on this, we can conclude that the first sentence is a narrative text, because an event is being narrated, which is jim asking a question. The second sentence presents a narrative and descriptive text, because besides having the narration of a series of events has the description of a hand that grabbed the pulse of somebody. In addition the second sentence presents many adjectives.

The purpose of the Puritans’ Errand into the Wilderness was to create a perfect godly community that would be a model for the re
AfilCa [17]

When the first colonists arrived to America, many were interested in creating a society that was innovative, original, but most importantly, virtuous. These people were the Puritans. The Puritans were members of the Protestant denominations of Europe, and they thought of America as a place in which they could create these new, virtuous communities.

This is what the author Perry Miller calls the Puritan's "Errand into the Wilderness." It is difficult to establish whether the Puritans were successful in their purpose. On the one hand, it is true that the Puritans were able to establish a community where dissent was a lot less common than in similar communities. They were also able to establish communities that were generally more peaceful, more equitable and more homogeneous than other communities. Nevertheless, they were not completely successful. Often, repression occured as part of an attempt to maintain peace. This led them to some undemocratic and violent practices. Moreover, the communities were not able to successfully deal with outside pressures.

Quote the line that proves Hamlet is not happy.
tiny-mole [99]

The line from Hamlet that best describes that Hamlet is not happy is the one where he regrets not being able to suicide because it is a sin:

<em>"Oh, that this too, too sullied flesh would melt,</em>

<em>Thaw, and resolve itself into a dew,</em>

<em>Or</em><u><em> that the Everlasting had not fixed</em></u>

<u><em>His canon 'gainst self-slaughter!</em></u><em> O God, God!</em>

<u><em>How weary, stale, flat, and unprofitable</em></u>

<u><em>Seem to me all the uses of this world!"</em></u>

He is so depressed that he wants to commit suicide for this world is so horrible for him, that finds it weary, stale, flat and unprofitable.

Which action is not mentioned as one the americans have tried in its argument with britain?
Elenna [48]
The two nations are bound together by shared history, an overlap in religion and a common language and legal system, and kinship ties that reach back hundreds of years, including kindred, ancestral lines among English Americans, Scottish Americans, Welsh Americans, Scotch-Irish Americans and American Britons respectively. Today large numbers of expatriates live in both countries.

Through times of war and rebellion, peace and estrangement, as well as becoming friends and allies, Britain and the US cemented these deeply rooted links during World War II into what is known as the "Special Relationship." In long-term perspective, the historian Paul Johnson has called it the "cornerstone of the modern, democratic world order".

In the early 20th century, the United Kingdom affirmed its relationship with the United States as its "most important bilateral partnership" in the current British foreign policy,[2] and the American foreign policy also affirms its relationship with Britain as its most important relationship,as evidenced in aligned political affairs, mutual cooperation in the areas of trade, commerce, finance, technology, academics, as well as the arts and sciences; the sharing of government and military intelligence, and joint combat operations and peacekeeping missions carried out between the United States Armed Forces and the British Armed Forces. Canada has historically been the largest importer of U.S. goods and the principal exporter of goods to the United States. As of January 2015 the UK was fifth in terms of exports and seventh in terms of import of goods.

The two countries also have had a significant impact of the cultures of many other countries. They are the two main nodes of the Anglosphere, with a combined population of around 385 million in 2015. Together, they have given the English language a dominant role in many sectors of the modern world.
