In the case of this sentence we have an example of a <em>Passive Voice Sentence: </em>

<h2>The Hawaiian Islands are also known for their lush, exotic scenery</h2>

In which the <u>verb phrase</u> is are also known. “Also” in this case is just an adverb modifying the verb phrase. This last is compounded by the verb <em>To Be</em> in the present form and the perfective form of the main verb (know).

On the other hand, in this example of the passive, the <u>Subject Phrase</u> is The Hawaiian Islands which are the recipients of the action performed in the Verb Phrase by an unknown/covert agent which is not mentioned in this sentence.

Answer:

The message is that, as well as dogs, have his own instincts (searching for food when they are starving, and fighting until death in order to get food), humans are not different, they will defend their selves and their possessions until death. This situation does not mean that even when humans are acting because of his instincts, they do not feel fear: when Bill says "I wisht they'd strike game somewheres, an' go away an' leave us alone." it means that they know they have to do something to make dogs go away even they do not like the situation and feel afraid, as well as dogs do but have no other option to survive than to follow their instincts.

These Questions are from the story, "The Night the Bed Fell" 1. What details about Briggs Beall are probably exaggerated? 2. Wha
Alinara [238K]

1. The detail about Briggs Beall that seems to exaggerate in the story is that he presumes that he stops breathing in the middle of the night, all of a sudden.

James’s mother starts shouting due to a presumption, he thinks it is because of his nonbreathing in the night, and goes to the heights of soaking himself all over with camphor spirit, just so that he may revive himself.

2. The author mentions his three aunts in the story, each having their peculiar habits or beliefs.

  • Clarissa Beall somehow held the belief that she would eventually die on South High Street, as most of her life happenings had taken place on this particular street.
  • Sarah Shoaf, was fearful that a burglar would somehow spray her room with chloroform and steal her valuables. To avoid being affected by the chemical, she’d stack up all her valuables outside her room with a note to the supposed burglar that this is all she possesses, hence take it and leave.
  • Gracie Shoaf, too had a similar phobia of burglar attacking her house, in response to which she would through her footwear in the middle of the night. This she was doing for the last forty years.

3. The author says he is about to share an “incredible” tale that happened to him one night.

4. Aunt Gracie Shoaf, having a phobia of burglar’s entering her house, sets all the footwear that she owns and throws it randomly across the house in the middle of the night so as to scare or shoo them away.
