1. In my opinion, the correct answer is b. It highlights the dangers of the wilderness. The author doesn't just talk about various senses. He tells us how important and subtle the wolf's sense of smell is for his survival in the Northern woods, full of wild animals and predators, such as cougars and bears. The wolf is always watchful and alert.

2. I think the correct answer is c. his subtle aggressiveness. The cone detail may lead us to believe that the author intends to depict the wolf's playfulness. But it is more than just that. The wolf displays another attitude in his play with the cone. He shows that he is ever capable of survival, thanks to his aggressiveness.

Answer:

The correct response is "Hint or suggestion". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The interpretation of the given context refers to something that can be presumed as well as suspected, but never explicitly mentioned.
Therefore this would be implicit because it's not explicitly mentioned but which is whether indicated in the language and perhaps required for the intent to be carried out.

So the interpretation above would be right.

Read the excerpt from The Odyssey. My home is on the peaked sea-mark of Ithaca under Mount Neion's wind-blown robe of leaves, in

This question is missing the options. I've found them online. They are the following:

What key detail should be added to strengthen the student’s paraphrasing of this excerpt?

A) Dulichium, Same, and Zacynthus are all visible to Ithaca.

B) Odysseus holds his home very close to his heart.

C) The islands surrounding Ithaca lie to the east and the south.

D) Ithaca lies under Mount Neion and to the northwest.

Answer:

The detail that should be added to strengthen the paraphrasing is:

B) Odysseus holds his home very close to his heart.

Explanation:

A paraphrase consists of rewording something that was said by someone else. That is, we say the exact same thing but with different words. Thus, to strengthen the student's paraphrase in this case, we must look for the idea that is missing.

In the original excerpt, Odysseus talks of Ithaca's geographic location, the fact that it is a good place "for a boy's training", and the fact that the island is a place he loves:

I shall not see on earth a place more dear.

However, the student's paraphrase has left out this last idea. To make it more complete, we should add that Odysseus holds his home very close to his heart.

Read the excerpt below from Act V, Scene 3 and answer the question.

alexdok [17]

Prince Escalus appears in Acts 1 and 3 to end the duels between the families and to hand out appropriate punishments to the people who have been fighting. He is also a mechanism for the audience to know or learn specific details of the brawls that may have been missed. In both Act 1 and 3, Benvolio recounts the fights to the Prince.

Escalus gives punishments that will significantly change the fate of the characters, and, if those punishments had not been given, would significantly change the direction of the play. His ruling that anyone caught fighting again in Act 1 would be killed, makes Romeo's banishment in Act 3 necessary, thus forcing his and Juliet's actions in Acts 4 and 5.

Positive and Negative Connotations. ... For example, the words childish, childlike and youthful have the same denotative but different connotative meanings. Childish and childlike have a negative connotation as they refer to immature behavior of a person. Whereas, youthful implies that a person is lively and energetic.
