. Read the passage from “The Devil and Tom Walker.” What does this passage tell you about the personal viewpoint of the author a

nd the cultural norms of this period?
From “The Devil and Tom Walker” Tom looked in the direction that the stranger pointed, and beheld one of the great trees, fair and flourishing without, but rotten at the core, and saw that it had been nearly hewn through, so that the first high wind was likely to blow it down. On the bark of the tree was scored the name of Deacon Peabody, an eminent man, who had waxed wealthy by driving shrewd bargains with the Indians.

The author frowns on the hypocrisy of religious people who take advantage of others.

There was a flourishing business during this period as successful people traded with the Indians.

People of that region respected the forests and were opposed to the careless cutting of trees.

“About Mars” is the Adjective Phrase.

Adjective phrase describes “what kind of which ones”

So for example here

“After school, I looked for books about Mars.”

“About Mars” describes the kind of books so that makes it an Adjective phrase.

I hope this helps.

Revising involves a. Checking for spelling errors b. Checking for punctuation errors c. Checking for content clarity and coheren
ollegr [7]
I've always been taught that revising involves checking for spelling, punctuation, and grammar.  Basically any kind of improvements.  Is this one of those questions where you check all that apply?    Revising also includes making sure you have stayed on topic and gives you the chance to remove things that may not really apply or add other things that may have been left out.  It's where the writer truly polishes everything up.
I hope this helps.
