How does Grandfather’s reaction to Phoebe describing Nadia as American resolve the tension between her and her grandfather?

English
1 answer:
Likurg_2 [28]2 years ago
4 0

Answer :

Phoebe does not reveal to grandfather that Nadia's parents are from Karachi, Pakistan. She describes Nadia as an American just like her. Phoebe expected him to remind her again that she is Greek not American. But grandfather looked at the photo again and said "Pretty Girl." Then he looked at Phoebe and his attitude towards her softened like he had accepted that Phoebe was more of an American and less of a Greek. In that caring expression, Phoebe realized that her grandfather loves her and he wants to share his culture, tradition and values with her. Grandfather wants Phoebe to be proud of her heritage. The tension between Phoebe and her grandfather gets resolved and she starts feeling more comfortable in Greece.

Nataly_w [17]

Correct answer choice is :


A) Violent acts


Explanation:


Okonkwo is also recognized as a tragic hero. Okonkwo's tragic defect is his concern of instability and failure. In his thirties, Okonkwo is a leader of the Igbo society of Umuofia. Okonkwo seldom expresses his concern, however, because he worries that doing so would make him look ineffective. Furthermore, he hopes that Ezinma was a boy because she would have been the perfect son.

Which sentence is punctuated correctly?
kumpel [21]
You should place commas around a phrase the at adds additional information to the sentence, but which is not necessary.

1)<span>Tanna president of the National Honor Society truly enjoys volunteer work.

this part is not necessary, so commas are required before and after it

2) The old house, that my father grew up in, is being completely renovated.

here the commas are unnecessary! that's because we need the information in boldface to identify the house

4) </span><span><span>My sister, who is a waitress at Billy’s Big Burger Shack, is sixteen years old.</span>

this is a correctly punctuated sentence - the information about being a waitress is additional.

5) The bird that built a nest in the oak tree, appears to have an injured wing.

here either the commas should be removed, or another comma added after "bird"

</span>

How many school text book that i can buy with 5 billion? (this is my civics homework)
Gekata [30.6K]
In order to calculate an accurate answer, we would really need to know the cost
of the textbooks.  We don't know that, and they're not even all the same.

There's a good reason that you were given this question is Civics class, and
before I work on it for you, I want you to promise that you'll go to your teacher
on your way out of class someday soon, and tell your teacher that the guy who
helped you answer this question knows how the teacher feels, and that guy
feels the same way.

Ok.  In order to give you a feeling for the answer, let's try to come up with a
cost that might be a reasonably close figure to use for text books in general.
Now, I know that things have gone completely out of sight since I was in school,
so I'm going to try hard to go high with my numbers.  Let's say that the smallest
textbook costs $20, and the biggest one costs $60, and let's use  $40 as an
estimate for the average cost of every new textbook.

If that's true, then the number of text books that I could buy with $5 billion
would be

(5,000,000,000) / (40) = <u>125 million textbooks</u> ! ! !

If the federal government would spend $5 billion on textbooks, there
would hardly be a high school student anywhere in the USA who didn't
have at least one brand new, up-to-date textbook.

And I can promise you that the book publishers would love it too.
