Read this excerpt from "After Twenty Years" by O. Henry.

English
1 answer:
OverLord2011 [107]3 years ago
4 0

The answer is: The pacing slows down the text with deliberate and descriptive language, which gives the story a mysterious atmosphere.

In the excerpt from "After Twenty Years," the author O. Henry describes the winter scene with details about the weather and the how the people in the street are behaving, which gives a sense of mystery to the story.

The rest of the options are incorrect because the events in the passage do not depict surprise, humor or alarm. Besides, there is no further description of the man, and the pacing is not fast.

Answer:

Ok I got you.

Prediction-

Predicting earthquakes helps reduce the impact of earthquakes because it gives people time to prepare for them.

I'm not really sure what they are trying to ask, but I would say on a developing country the impact would differ because predicting the earthquake would give people time to plan.

Protection-

People have died during earthquakes, so having the proper protection would mean being able to take refuge in a stable building that would not implode or disintegrate. This would help lessen the amount of casualties, because most people who die in earthquakes are killed from fallen rubble.

Protection from earthquakes would also help developing countries find better ways to build their homes and buildings. This gives them the opportunity to perfect the construction of buildings that can adapt to the volatility of earthquakes

Preparation-

Preparation helps reduce the impact of an earthquake by ensuring that people have the correct and multiple resources needed to survive.

Giving people in developing countries time to prepare for an earthquake betters their chances for survival. Seeing as though they may not have as many resources as citizens in developed countries do, they must rely on other things. For example earthquakes in and underdeveloped country might the people living there to move out of their homes and into a more stable environment.

Sorry this took so long :/Hope it helps

Answer:

I GOTCHUUUU :))

Explanation:

For all of the causes that made the French Revolution occur, there were reasons behind them as to why they happened. The causes were Bankruptcy of the government, influence from the American Revolution, and political inequalities. The government became bankrupt because Louis XIV and Louis XVI spent way too much money. Louis XVI had a plan to improve, so he wanted to eliminate all of the ministers who wanted to launch financial reform. Because of that, it led them to being bankrupt.

The French was influenced by the American Revolution. Because of America's success, it encouraged the French to fight for freedom.

Because of political inequalities, the nobles took advantage of not having to pay taxes, having freedom, etc. The middle class, peasants, and artisans worked very hard and actually had to pay taxes. They were not allowed to let out their opinions about political topics. Not everything was fair for everyone.
