Answer:

Find explanation below.

Explanation:

In the short story. "Sol, Painting Inc.", by Meg Medina, Merci was presented as a young girl who was to start seventh grade at a school she did not like namely, Seaward Pines. She was reported as not getting along with her father in the earlier part of the book. This can be proven from the statement:

<em>"Mami: She has no vision. No wonder she and Papi don’t get along". </em>

In the later part of the book, however, Mami said that the only condition she would agree to, before she could go to Seaward Pines was being an apprentice for her father. While they were painting a school (Seaward Pines), some high school girls threw their paints on the floor and destroyed their work. Merci lashed out at them but her father kept quiet. This annoyed Merci because she expected her father to defend her and lash out at the girls.

Roli, her brother however explained that her father did not want to embarrass her, reason while he kept calm.  We see this from his statement:

<em>"Papi chose to be invisible today so you won't ever have to be," </em>

This later softened Merci's disposition towards her father.

Explanation:

Words in simple present actually show action  that take place regularly and those that are happening right now. The person (whether first person, second person or third person) determines the formation of the tense whether -s or -es will be added to the verb root word or not.

Prepositions are used in sentences before nouns, pronouns or noun phrases. They are used in order to time, place, direction, introduce an object or even show spatial relationship.

In the above sentences, the prepositions are used to show the time something occurs.

How does Oscar Wilde use Algernon’s attitude to poke fun at society’s traditional rules of behavior?
Verizon [17]

Answer:

The way Oscar Wilde used Algernon’s attitude to poke fun at society’s traditional rules of behavior is:

In traditional society, Algernon would be expected to defend his aunt. Instead, he speaks freely about his feelings toward family.

Explanation:

The reasons behind this answer are that in the first place the story takes place in a context that idealized and expected people to defend his family even if what people said about them was the truth. Now, the way Wilde turns this is a very progressive one that made him a brilliant misunderstood individual because he said relationships don't know when to die.
