Answer: laugh the "Saws" to scorn.

The quote is from the 1937 novel <em>Their Eyes Were Watching God</em>, by African-American writer Zora Neale Hurston. The novel takes place in central and southern Florida in the early 20th century, and it reflects the speech and culture of the time period. Therefore, phrases like <em>"laugh the "Saws" to scorn"</em> can be unusual for some readers.

The novel is regarded as a seminal work in both African-American literature and women's literature.

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

B, a copy or duplicate.

Explanation:

It isn't the actual ship so it can't be the original version because the original ship would be big not small. It's a ship so it can't be a companion, and no one is presenting anything so it's definitely not an assisted presentation.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer: The answer would be B;The stories always provide accurate historical facts.

Explanation: The reason that the answer is B is because considering the genre "Historical Fiction" has the word "History" in it, that refers to the past and "Fiction" means fake. It's basically saying that the story and events are completely true, but the people in the events and possibly even the times in the story are either fake or completely changed.

slega [8]

Answer:

Citing your sources allows readers of your work to easily find the sources to which you've referred. If you do not cite the sources upon which your research is based, you will be guilty of plagiarism. Plagiarism is using the ideas and writings of others and representing them as your own
