Naya [18.7K]3 years ago

The correct answer is the second statement. In the "The Interlopers" by Saki (Hector Hugh Munro) the setting contributes to the theme of the story by showing that nature is unconcerned with human desires. In this short story Georg and Ulrich are continuing three years long dispute about the forest. The setting of the story is very important because the forest on the border of their lands doesn’t really has value, but represent their greed and yearning for dominance over one another. The forest on the night of the final dispute is described as a dreary place in which cries for help are only heard by wolves. This shows that nature is unforgiving and indifferent to man’s concerns (dispute over land).

Which topic is too broad for a 10-minute speech?A. how to punt a football B. the history of California C. visiting the Louvre in
Nina [5.8K]

B. the history of California

For a speech, 10 minutes is really just enough time to pretty much cover the basics.  When we consider that the average time it takes to read/speak is approximately 250 words a minute, and with the understanding that one typed page is 250 words, this means that 10 minutes would cover only four pages of text.  With that in mind, the topic of “The History of California,” it can be safely assumed that only a superficial covering of the history would be covered because there is so much that could be covered, especially keeping in mind that California’s history could include everything from prehistoric times (or earlier) to the present day.  When deciding on a topic, one should always keep the required length in mind and decide whether the topic is suitable for the page/time length because for broad topics many pages and lots of time would be required in order to adequately cover everything of which it is comprised.   For low page/time requirements, a narrow topic is what would be needed.

I bet the butcher that he couldn’t reach the meat on the top shelf. He refused to take the bet because the steaks were too high.
AlladinOne [14]
This is an example of an idiom.

An idiom that has a different meaning than what it sounds like.

It doesn’t actually mean that the steak is high. “The steaks were too high” simply means that it’s too dangerous/risky.


Hope this helps!
