"In writing it down I feel with only too much keenness the inadequacy of pen and ink—and, above all, my own inadequacy—to express its quality." and "At first we glanced now and again at each other. After a time we ceased to do that, and looked only at the Time Traveller's face." are the two parts of this excerpt from The Time Machine by H. G. Wells that suggest that the Time Traveller told a captivating tale.

Read the sentences from Barrio Boy by Ernesto Galarza.

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

do not understand what the sign says.

Explanation:

"Barrio Boy" is an autobiography of Ernesto Galarza, which was published in 1971. He recounts his travel memories during the Mexican Revolution–of how his family traveled towards California due to the maltreatment of Mexicans in Mexico.

Upon trying to adapt to the American society, Ernesto and his mother discovered the indoor toilet in a hotel located in Nogales. The hotel clerk most likely suspected that Ernesto and his mother could not understand what the sign says because of their lack of knowledge on indoor toilets. The hotel clerk then gave them further instructions on what to do. Ernesto was fascinated by it that he even went several trips to the toilet before he was ordered to sleep.

what is the difference between affect and effect? Also, what is the difference between grey and gray. Please make it easy to exp

shtirl [24]

Affect is a verb that means to influence something and effect is a noun means something that is or has been influenced. I'll use them both in a sentence. "She was affected by stress." "She didn't like the effect stress had on her."

Now for grey and gray they both mean the same thing. They both refer to the color. Gray is just the more popular spelling in the US and grey is more popular in the UK. You can spell it however you'd like.

Hopefully that helps!
