The answer is: a vivid verb describing what the father's team did

 

<span>This is the descriptive language used in the sentence because it addresses the five senses of the reader. The point of a descriptive language is that it should help the reader’s imagination in creating a picture in their minds. The verb in the sentence gives the reader a clear image of what the father’s team did.</span>

Think about a situation in the past where you felt you were being treated unfairly. Did you take action? What was the end result
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Think of something, like being left out or having your parents talk about your siblings more than you.

Explanation:

Getting treated unfairly is something nobody wants to feel. If there is anything in your past or maybe even present that made you feel that way, Write a paragraph describing how you felt and how you came to the end of it. For example, If you were getting left out. What did you do about it? Did you just let yourself suffer from it? Or did you speak out about it? Write your paragraph about anything that made you feel like you were getting treated unfairly or differently than others.

I hope this helped you!

Why does Sherlock Holmes conclude that the unknown visitor to his rooms is absent-minded? A. The visitor's stick has tooth marks
Valentin [98]

Answer:C. The visitor left his stick behind.

Explanation:

Your question is referring to the excerpt from ''The Hound of the Baskervilles''  by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in which Sherlock is describing his visitor at the beginning of the first chapter.

''Mr. Sherlock Holmes, who was usually very late in the mornings, save upon those not infrequent occasions when he stayed up all night, was seated at the breakfast table. I stood upon the hearth-rug and picked up the stick which our visitor had left behind him the night before.''

After that, Sherlock picks up the stick and read what is written on it and then he is asking Watson about his opinion on it.

He was considered as the absent-minded because he left something with his name and evidence that is showing that he was there. If he was aware, he would not do that. In that way, Sherlock got all information about him.

Putting particular emphasis on the object will make the object more relevant and make readers could understand the correlation between whats written in the story and the object.
