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

Can y’all write a 150 word essay about your most memorable day
ryzh [129]

Answer:

A wonderful holiday I have had

(A brief description of the holiday )

Last month, we went to Erbil to spend our holiday. I went with my parents, my sister and my two brothers. We stayed at a nice hotel in the city centre. The place was very nice. I like it so much. During the day we used to visit the nice places there. There are a lot of parks and malls to go shopping. We visited Erbil Citadel and the high mountains which are covered with snow. So, I took a lot of photos. In the evening we used to stay in the hotel because the weather was cold. We had dinner and watch TV. I used to play video games till late hour. The best thing about the holiday was the hospitality and the nice treatment of the people. But the worst thing about the holiday was the very cold weather.

The correct answer here is the flashback. After the soldiers sent him over the bridge to hang we enter a flashback sequence where we find out how Peyton got to the point where we first meet him. We find out that he was tricked by a disgraced Union soldier and he interfered with the railroad and the punishment for that is death by hanging.
