At Odds with Getting Even by C. Safos Soledad crept on her toes. The fifth board on the dining room floor creaked like a bullfro

g groaning in the midnight moonlight. She dodged the floor board, gingerly leaping over it. The hardest part about moving around with such calculated moves was controlling her breathing. Her breath was held in tight like a well-concealed hand of poker. It was making her heart race, and her racing heart was making her hot. Soledad could feel the heat in her ears. She could make out the back of David's head from the end of the dining room to where he was sitting in the living room. She knew it was him. He always wore his Mets hat everywhere he went. In fact, Soledad was sure that she hadn't seen him without the cap in at least three years. It was almost a part of his head. Bull's-eye, she thought to herself. She noted during dinner that her brother David said he planned on watching a scary movie before he went to bed. That's when the wheels in Soledad's head started to turn. It had only been a week since she reached into her dirty clothes hamper only to pull out a rubber snake instead of a tube sock. Before her scream could even reach her lips, she knew that the prank had David's fingerprints all over it. The laughing from his bedroom confirmed as much. As she held her breath, she could still hear him laughing. She slowly and quietly reached into her jeans pocket to pull out the whistle. She clasped it tight in her hands to keep the ball in the whistle from rattling around. She imagined the sound would rattle around in David's head the same way. She could hardly contain herself. She took the whistle in her mouth and finally took a deep breath. Just as she was about to let the whistle ring, the hat fell forward. David wasn't even there. He had simply left his cap on the couch's back, and it looked like he was watching television. Suddenly, the hall closet flung open. David leapt out waving his hands around screaming, "Brahahahahaha!" Soledad leapt forward onto the couch screaming and falling on David's hat and the back of the couch. "You can't get me," David said, "I'm too good!" Soledad stomped out of the room and up the stairs. "Sol," David yelled, "I was just kidding! Don't be mad!" As she walked up the stairs and out of sight of the living room, she pulled out David's Mets hat. She placed it on her head. I'm not mad at all, she thought to herself. 3 What can the reader infer by the narrator's statement, "He had simply left his cap on the couch, and it looked like he was watching television"? A. David is angry. B. David is clever. C. David is lucky. D. David is bossy. R

She excluded her former friend from the invitation list. The prefix in the italicized word in the sentence above is:
tatiyna

The prefixes are a group of letters or one single letter placed and attached before the root word, and at the same time provides meaning to the complete word. For example "impossible" in this case the prefix would be "im".

Hence, the correct answer is letter <u>c. ex</u>

What evidence can you offer to challenge Hutson’s thesis?
zvonat [6]

Answer:

1. This is an expository article. This can be seen through the author's attempt to provide evidence to readers based on scientific and confirmed analyzes, where he literally exposes the topic in question, explaining it impartially and informing the reader.

2. The central idea is to expose the certainty that some Puritans have that they still exist and are influential in America, being part of American society.

3. To justify this perception of the Puritans, Hudson shows how the Puritans justify that many cultural points and customs present in America today are based on Puritan habits.

4. To explain a specific idea about Puritans believing they are still influential today, Hutson shows that many ideas from influential Puritans like Martin Luther and John Calvin are currently being encouraged, to confirm this, he shows that research has already been done with students from two universities that prove that the concepts of these two men are still taken seriously within society. I do not fully agree with Hutson's view because the research he cites in the article only represents a very small part of the population, which is not enough to represent American society.

please mark me brainliest.
