  • Answer: C) Urgent

These lines make the speaker sound urgent. This is because the words the speaker uses are intense and demanding, and they reflect a lack of patience. Moreover, the way the speaker talks makes him sound uncompromising. Therefore, the character is developed as urgent.

  • Answer: D) It provides an escape from his overlay controlling wife.

In "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty," the main character often daydreams about fantastical situations. These dreams and vivid images that the character has are motivated by a desire to escape from his controlling and overbearing wife. Therefore, they are a symptom of his unhappiness.

  • Answer: B) Eckels stepping on a butterfly and killing it.

In the story, Eckels travels to the past in order to hunt a dinosaur. However, things go wrong, and he accidentally alters the past by stepping on a butterfly and killing it. When he comes back to the present, everything is different. This shows how small acts can significantly alter the future.

Editing and Proofreading: Correct the errors in the subject-verb agreement in the sentence below. Fix any other errors that you
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

C. One of the cars has lost its bumper.

Explanation:

The subject-verb agreement is a rule according to which the subject and predicate must agree in number. This means that a singular subject takes a singular verb, and the opposite - a plural subject takes a plural verb.

The complete subject in the given sentence is<em> </em><em>one of the cars. </em><em>Cars</em> is a plural noun, but it's preceded by the phrase <em>one of the</em>, which makes the subject singular. That's why the predicate must contain a singular verb, as well. The form <em>have lost</em> is incorrect, because that's a plural form. The correct option is<em> has lost</em>.

There is another mistake. The phrase <em>it's bumper</em> is incorrect because <em>it's</em> is a contraction of the phrase <em>it is</em>, and we need the possessive pronoun <em>its</em> (<em>the car has lost </em><u><em>its bumper = the car's bumper</em></u>).

That's why the correct option is C.

Which explains why Baba Abdalla asks every person who gives him alms to give him a box on the ear, as well?
faust18 [17]

The story of Baba Abdalla is a classic Arabic folktale that appears in the collection of the One Thousand and One Nights. It tells the story of a man who was so consumed by avarice it led him to his downfall.

In the story, Baba Abdalla ends up being a beggar, after all his struggle and the loss of his wealth. He then asks everyone who gives him money to also give him a blow to the head. The reason, he argues,<em> is that he wants to expiate the sin of avarice</em>, that has caused him so much suffering.
