Which of the following elements does not contribute to the dreary mood of this short passage from the novel Bleak House by Charl

es Dickens?
"Fog on the Essex marshes, fog on the Kentish heights. Fog creeping into the cabooses of collier-brigs; fog lying out on the yards, and hovering in the rigging of great ships; fog drooping on the gunwales of barges and small boats. Fog in the eyes and throats of ancient Greenwich pensioners, wheezing by the firesides of their wards; fog in the stem and bowl of the afternoon pipe of the wrathful skipper; fog cruelly pinching the toes and fingers of his shivering little 'prentice boy on deck."

Assuming your options are <em>infinitives, repetition, adjectives, and punctuation, </em>the correct answer is infinitives.
The answer is rather simple when you think about it - there are no infinitives in this passage, so obviously they cannot contribute to any mood. There are repetitions (the word fog is constantly being repeated), there are a lot of adjectives, and some punctuation marks - all of which contribute to the dreariness of this excerpt.

What are the meaning of panalo song? ​
madreJ [45]

Born in the Philippines, Ez Mil created Panalo as the pride song of Pinoy, with a title that literally translates to victory and combines Tagalog and Ilocano.

The song itself even features Carinosa, a song from a traditional Filipino folk dance. However, one lyric from the song annoyed some listeners.

EZ MIL’S PANALO LYRICS

During the song, Ez Mil raps that Filipino hero Lapu-Lapu was beheaded in the Battle of Mactan. However, the lyric isn’t factually true. Instead, Lapu-Lapu and his warriors defeated and killed Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan.

“Nanalo na ako nung una pa na pinugutan si Lapu sa Mactan,” which translates to “I already won the moment Lapu-[Lapu] was beheaded in Mactan.”

Can someone please help me with this question
dsp73

Answer:

Options 1,2,and 4 are all incorrect. This statement pertains to the sound of  the guitar being drouned out in a literal manner. Vocies,machinery,and other instruments allhad equal chance to drown out the sound of the guitar during a preformance. It is clear that the guitarwould not be replaced,it's still used to this day, however more often than not, it was used as a background instrumentas drums or pianos are. The most common lead in music today would be the singer (voice) or the guitarist.Along with this, the hollow body of a guitar is used to create greater vibrations and a form of echo for a lack of better terms. If anything,the hollow body of a guitar helps its sound travel better han it harms it.
