b. listen with empathy

The key characteristic for one listening with empathy is to give the speaker your undivided attention.  Because Jeff fell asleep, he obviously had not been providing this.  Further, when one is empathetic, one is able to understand the position/place of someone else.  Obviously, if Jeff were speaking, he would want his audience to pay attention, so he should have recognized this and been conscious of that for Elizabeth.  By Jeff falling asleep, he does not understand the perspective of someone else in order to recognize how to respectfully listen (or listen with empathy).

kipiarov [429]
<span>As John enters the "city of the Gods," he realizes that he is hungry, and so goes on the hunt for some food.  He states that it is a well-known fact that the gods didn't hunt for food, but rather got food from "enchanted boxes and jars," and that it was forbidden to eat any of that food, because it often made one sick.</span>

At the beginning of the act, Elizabeth says, "The town’s gone wild." By the end of the act there was much more truth in that sta
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Foreshadowing is the literary technique used in the line by Elizabeth Proctor.

The scene that took place for the loose devil in Salem is the case of the witch hunt that took over the town of Salem.

This connects to the theme of hysteria in that the trial brought everyone to an excitement that no one can seem to ignore or be able to refrain from.

Explanation:

The literary technique that Arthur Miller used in his "The Crucible" is foreshadowing. It allows a certain 'hint' to the readers about what was to come in the near future. This is aptly seen in the line spoken by Elizabeth Proctor<em> "The town's gone wild".</em>

The event that took place over the course of the act is that of the witch-hunt. Abigail and other young girls were caught in the forest, dancing and <em>"trafficking"</em> with the devil. But for this, Elizabeth Proctor was wrongly accused of the same witch-craft, and condemned to be hanged. The subsequent community turmoil that this issue brought into the town of Salem is what Elizabeth was referring to the loose devil in Salem.

Hysteria is the super excitement of people about a certain issue, feeling anxious and full of uncontrollable emotions. This is similar to the Salem witch hunt for it creates a sense of excitement in the whole community to see and know about the case. The very case brought everyone on their toes, be it young and old, all seem interested and affected by the trial.

which word has a similar denotation and connotation to the word curious? 1. inquisitive 2. intrusive 3. nosy 4. snoopy​
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

1. Inquisitive

Explanation:

Denotation is the literal meaning of a word. Connotation is the figurative meaning of the word.

While curious can be viewed in a negative limelight, it generally means to be pensive or thoughtful. Answers 2, 3, and 4 are more aggressive with their meaning.

Think of it as the following, your sibling is intrusive and nosy, while an investigator is curious and inquisitive.
