Answer: The contraction "could've" means "could have".

Explanation: A contraction, which is an abbreviated word, takes place when a apostrophe (') replaces one or more letters<u>. For example, "'ve" is the abbreviated version of the word "have". In that way, the contraction "could've" stands for "could have", which is a past modal used to refer to something that could have happened in the past, but it did not happen.</u> Other past modals are "should have" and "would have", whose abbreviated versions are "should've" and "would've" respectively.

How we see jack and ralph differing priorities in chapter 3
Afina-wow [57]

Jack and Ralph disagree over leadership styles and the priorities of what must be done on the island.  Ralph feels that building the shelters should be the group's biggest priority; he worries about the littluns who do not sleep well at night and the possibility of more bad weather.   Most of Ralph's frustrations stem from not having enough help from the other older boys on the shelters.  They all agreed in the meeting that it was a good idea, but the actual implementation has been more challenging.

When Ralph asks Jack to help with the shelters, Jack refuses, saying that meat and hunting is more important to the tribe.  After the boys debate that their island might not be a "good island," the boys come to an understanding that they both want different things, but the issue remains unresolved as to which is more important.

Read the excerpt below from A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf and answer the question that follows.
lidiya [134]

This is the correct statement:

Women who read and wrote too often were cast out of the home.

Explanation:

A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf is one of the markedly feminist tracts of all time and it asserts an important point through the existence of this fictional sister of Shakespeare by asserting a fact.

It is that the women were simply not allowed to read and write in his time and no matter how hard she would have tried she would not have amounted to much in her life.

The system was against her education and her pursuit of a career thus.
