At last, late in the day, they heard a bellowing, low and faint as though far away. They listened and soon heard it again, a lit

tle louder and very fierce and dreadful. "It is he! it is he!" cried Theseus; "and now for the fight!" Then he shouted, so loudly that the walls of the Labyrinth answered back, and the sound was carried upward to the sky and outward to the rocks and cliffs of the mountains. The Minotaur heard him, and his bellowings grew louder and fiercer every moment. "He is coming!" cried Theseus, and he ran forward to meet the beast. The seven maidens shrieked, but tried to stand up bravely and face their fate; and the six young men stood together with firm-set teeth and clinched fists, ready to fight to the last. Soon the Minotaur came into view, rushing down the passage towards Theseus, and roaring most terribly. He was twice as tall as a man, and his head was like that of a bull with huge sharp horns and fiery eyes and a mouth as large as a lion's; but the young men could not see the lower part of his body for the cloud of dust which he raised in running. When he saw Theseus with the sword in his hand coming to meet him, he paused, for no one had ever faced him in that way before. Then he put his head down, and rushed forward, bellowing. But Theseus leaped quickly aside, and made a sharp thrust with his sword as he passed, and hewed off one of the monster's legs above the knee. –“The Cruel Tribute,” James Baldwin Explain how the author creates the suspenseful moment when the Minotaur arrives. Use the passage if you need to review the story’s climax

Answer:

James Baldwin speeds up the action to create suspense for the reader. By moving the action forward so quickly, the author leaves the reader anxious to discover if Theseus saves himself and the other characters from the Minotaur.

visit a grocery store(along with your parents) in vicnity of your house observe the atmopheric,types of products/items, behaviou
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

The assignment wants to know a personal experience you had at a grocery store in your neighborhood. As I don't have access to it, I can't write your paragraph, but I'll show you all the necessary structure for it.

<h3>Paragraph structure</h3>
  1. Introduction: Introduce what the grocery store is and what products can be found there.
  2. Body: Describe the elements of the grocery store that you like and explain why they are good in your opinion. Then describe what you don't like and explain why.
  3. Conclusion: Determine if the grocery store is pleasant or not and if it fulfills its mission.

This paragraph should be a descriptive text, because you will show the characteristics of the grocery store, describing it and showing details.

Below is an example of how you might write the paragraph:

<em>Lourdes grocery store is a block away from my house and there we can find different types of products. This diversity is what makes the grocery store special and I really like how we can find food, drinks, toys, objects, magazines, and many other products. Also, the grocery store is a bit of a mess, probably because of its diverse collection. It makes me a little confused and I don't like it. However, the grocery store is a treasure for our neighborhood and it's great how we can count on it for all hours and for any need.</em>
