B. It goes from sleepy to frantically busy for a short time.

Explanation:

In Life on the Mississippi, Mark Twain details the narrator’s coming of age through the process of learning to be a steamboat pilot, which fulfilled his boyhood dream.

Twain describes Hannibal, Missouri, sometimes as a village and sometimes as a town. It is a very rural, sleepy, quaint place.

He says, 'And the fragrant town drunkard asleep in the shadow of them',  'but nobody to listen to the peaceful lapping of the wavelets against them,' 'a white town drowsing in the sunshine of summer's morning, the streets empty.'

Sedentary lifestyles are harmful. Sedentary lifestyles result in disease. Which sentence most clearly combines these sentences i
Oksana_A [137]

The correct answer is “Sedentary lifestyles are harmful and results in disease.”

<em>The sentence that most clearly combines these sentences in a cohesive thought is “Sedentary lifestyles are harmful and results in disease.” </em>

The sentence that is coherent and is grammatically correct is “Sedentary lifestyles are harmful and results in disease.” It is clear, better understood, and can’t be misinterpreted. It clearly says that if an individual has a sedentary life, it could be harmful and the consequence of this is that there is a probability to cause disease.

The other options of the question were, “Sedentary Lifestyles are a result of harmful disease “, “Lifestyles that result in disease are harmful and sedentary”, and “Lifestyles that are sedentary are harmful and result in disease”.

Manuela is working on visualizing the setting in this excerpt from "Nothing but Net.”
olchik [2.2K]

The correct answer is "shoebox-sized store"

Explanation:

The setting includes the place where a story occurs and this is related to the geographical features of the place such as the existence of mountains or a forest, the location of the place, and even the buildings in this place. Moreover, this setting is explained to the reader by using descriptive language that allows the reader to imagine or visualize a location. This is better exemplified in "shoebox-sized store" because this detail refers to the buildings in this place, which is part of the setting, and it allows the reader to imagine the specific store by using words that explain the store is rather small.
