Read the text, then answer the question that follows: Wild animals as viewed from a mountain camp—Camille Grant, October 2011 Th

rough 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 crowd leaned out the windows, hooting and hollering, until the lions awoke. To create a more negative connotation, the author could have replaced the word crowd with which of the following synonyms? (5 points) Assembly Gathering Group Mob

lawyer [7]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

This answer is clear when you answer the text a little bit. The lines "Like a cloistress she will veiled walk, and water once a day her chamber round" implies that she will be walking around her chamber (room) and cry. It is also made clear that this is because of her brother's death, by the line "A brother's dead love, which she would keep fresh... And lasting in her sad rememberance". Hope this helps!

This world was being watched keenly and closely only intelligences greater than Mans'a and yet as mortal as his own
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

pa brainliest answer po follow me follow back and pa heart po thankssssss

Explanation:

no one would have believed in

he last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man’s and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutnised and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinise the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. With infinite complacency men went to and fro over this globe about their little affairs, serene in their assurance of their empire over matter. It is possible that the infusoria under the microscope do the same. No one gave a thought to the older worlds of space as sources of human danger, or thought of them only to dismiss the idea of life upon them as impossible or improbable.
