D.) the noose which is a loop with a running knot, tightening as the rope or wire is pulled and typically used to hang people or trap animals.

Answer: The right answer is the D) The noose.

Explanation: Although the railroad tracks (since the protagonists of this story were standing in a railroad bridge twenty feet above the ground), the cannon (which was pointing towards the bridge) and the wooden planks (where the prisoner and his executioners were standing) could be also arguably interpreted as motifs that represent being trapped, since they were meant to prevent Peyton Farquhar from escaping alive, the noose is certainly the more obvious, since, tightened around his neck and attached to a timber above his head, it limited his movements and inevitably subjected him to his captors' will.

<span>When the speaker sees bent birch trees, he likes to think that they are bent because boys have been “swinging” them. He knows that they are, in fact, bent by ice storms. Yet he prefers his vision of a boy climbing a tree carefully and then swinging at the tree’s crest to the ground. He used to do this himself and dreams of going back to those days. He likens birch swinging to getting “away from the earth awhile” and then coming back. hope this helps you

Answer Below(Too long to write here)

lisabon 2012 [21]

<u>Answer:</u>

The best way for the author to combine sentences 7 and 8 is

B: Insulated boxes can help keep warm food warm and cold food cold; although some foods need to be refrigerated or heated to kill germs that cause food poisoning.  

<u>Explanation:</u>

Punctuation is very important in writing. It is very important for better understanding of the writing and it makes writing more appealing to the reader.

Whenever there is a contrast being shown between two clauses in a sentence, we use although. As a rule, there must be a comma before although. If there is another independent clause being introduced as second part of the sentence, we use a semicolon before that. The second part of the sentence “some foods need to be refrigerated or heated to kill germs that cause food poisoning” is an independent clause which can act as standalone sentence. So, option B is the correct option to choose.
