Through my binoculars, I viewed a group of wild animals in action. A pride of lions was sleeping when a small, yellow bus pulled

up beside them. Tourists on a safari were packed into the bus like sardines in a can. Armed with cameras, they invaded the lions' territory, hoping to capture the perfect photograph. The crowd leaned out the windows, hooting and hollering, until the lions awoke. When the lions moved away, the bus rolled after them, relentlessly stalking the pride. One of the lions turned and roared to protect the young. This was greeted with cheers and a celebratory honk of the bus horn. The curious visitors observed the lions' routine for an hour before moving on. Leaving a cloud of dust, the bus headed away, taking the wild animals off to disturb someone else's home.
Review the following line from the text:

The nosy visitors observed the lions' routine for nearly an hour before moving on.

To create a more positive connotation, the author could have replaced the word nosy with which of the following synonyms?

Curious
Intrusive
Meddlesome
Prying

Answer:

Curious.

Explanation:

All of the options available are synonyms of the term <em>"nosy"</em>. However, the term <em>"curious"</em> describes the group of visitors' own nature without negative connotations, whereas the rest of the options have an accusatory tone to them and suggest the tourists behave in an inappropriate manner.

Answer: It is a part of the rising action that shows a conflict between the dogs.

Explanation: Usually in a pack of dogs, there will be a fight for dominance. Spitz intruded Buck’s nest to show him that he was top dog, which would have been seen as a challenge to Buck, and it shows a battle will follow soon.

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

The to in the first sentence should be changed to TOO. Remove the second sentence. Start the third sentence with FIRST OF ALL, instead of first off remember to add a comma after first of all.  For the fourth sentence instead write, One of the biggest online dangers are hackers. For the fifth sentence remove in this case, instead write a hacker is someone with evil intentions that illegally accesses someones device and steals or exposes their private information. For the sixth sentence remove it it is extra info that does not need to be there. For the seventh sentence remove anyways, instead start off the sentence by saying, When a hacker gains access to your device, they can watch your every move by hacking into your camera, steal and sell your information, or even steal your identity! For the eight sentence, instead write this sentence, You are probably more than scared right now, so next time you put your personal information into a suspicious website think about the consequences it may have ! For the ninth sentence remove it and instead write, With all this in mind, you may be wondering what should I do know? After you have added that sentence I suggest you remove the rest of the sentences you wrote since they are quite repetitive so instead just write the following. Some steps to take to keep you and your family safe from the evil dangers of the internet are to install an antivirus program, constantly renewing your passwords, and making sure that you or your family are not accessing any illegal websites.

Help with the three questions please

The main reason why the Senator begins his sentence with "I speak" is to show his sincerity.

<h3>What is Pathos?</h3>

This refers to the rhetorical device that is used to show the emotional appeals used by a person in a given text.

Hence, we can see that the emotional diction used by Senator Smith is logos as she talks about the seriousness of the situation which leads her to use simple words to speak.

The figurative language used by Senator Smith was shown in "...taken to heart" and it serves the purpose to show that she means they would take her words seriously.
