Answer:

The words from the excerpt that best help the reader determine a tone of distress are:

B. "sob," "groped," and "dragging"

Explanation:

<u>Tone is conveyed through word choice, in literature. It helps readers understand what the narrator and/or other characters are feeling, or what the situation is supposed to inspire in readers. </u>The only way for the author to convey such sensations and emotions is by choosing words that are connected to them.

<u>In the passage we are analyzing here, the words "sob," "groped," and "dragging" convey distress. Distress means extreme anxiety or extreme sorrow, suffering, affliction. A person who is not feeling anxious, sad, or suffering is not likely to sob, to grope, or to drag.</u> Lighter words would be used to describe them. <u>Now, if people drag their feet and grope around while sobbing, we can sense they are distressed.</u>

What is the second conflict in the story "The Interlopers"?
Dafna1 [17]
<span>The second conflict is man versus nature. Both men were in a dark forest in the freezing cold. Each spent the evening patrolling the tiny strip of land, hoping to catch the other and accuse him of 'trespassing'. The cold weather, the dark, the storm and the enormous tree reflect nature’s might against the two enemies. The resolution to this came, in the form of hungry wolves that are drawn to the smell of blood. The wolves represent nature’s final blow against the men and the men’s deaths will represent a clear and decisive victory- It's a really interesting story, maybe you should read it ;) </span>

PLEASE HELP. VERY URGENT<br> QUESTION IS BELOW
ruslelena [56]
1) We stood there waiting, which felt like eternity. We could hardly see anything because of how dramatic the fog was but it ended up clearing. We were on a ticking time bomb and had no time to hide. There we saw a mysterious creature. We were absolutely terrified of the Hound. It was enormous, it looked like it had eaten 2 ponies. It’s revolting face was giving off this vibrant green glow as the darkness appeared. We were absolutely frightened by this beast. We couldn’t even set fire at it because we were so startled. The revolting creature raced after Sir Henry, leaving him as startled as can be.

2) The enormous creature of the darkness started heading closer to the tracks. We could finally see clearly, no more fog. I looked up I could see the stars and the sky full of the moonlight.Holmes and I finally decided to fire at this creature fiercely with no hesitation. When we fired, a sound which seemed from hell had raised upon us-a howl from hell. The creature because fierce and raced onward, leaving nothing but dirt behind. We saw a glance from Sir Henry but it was too late. The ruthful Hound had knocked him out cold on the floor. I slit his throw open leaving nothing but blood and trails of its own left behind.

Hope this helped!! *Mark Brainliest plz!!*

Why is it ironic that the animals train for and unite in battle against the neighboring farmers? The farmers have food that the
Lisa [10]

I guess you're talking about Animal Farm. Well, the irony is that the animals came together and fought to overthrow the farmers who, they believed, were their greatest enemies, but in fact the greatest enemy of animals was "power." Once the farmers were defeated, the animals achieved their dreamed freedom, until "power" fell on the pigs, they began another kind of exploration and the animals lost their freedom again.  That is, as much as there is a fight against an enemy, another will arise, once he has power to concentrate in the hands of a single person, or a single group.

When I talk about this "power", I am referring to being able to be superior and oppressing others, because I think it is more certain, stronger, smarter, etc.

I hope it helps.
