Answer:
Under the astonished, wide-eyed moon, with the fires casting strange shadows upon these towering figures, I am rather inclined to believe him.
Explanation:
Unlike the second to last sentence (right before the above written), this sentence gives the moon traits that a person would have. The second to last sentence (the one with "They walk") only <em>tells</em> the personification rather than <em>shows</em>.
Answer:
Difficult times can make someone lie.
Explanation:
In the story 'Condensed Milk', the author tries to communicate the idea that it is alright to lie when someone has bad intentions towards you. Though no specific phrase mentions this idea, we can understand through the whole story that the author did what was best for him which was by lying to Shestakov that he would go along with him if he bring him food. It was such a difficult time for him that he had to lie just to get some food.
The lines " 'You know,’ I said, carefully licking the spoon, ‘I changed my mind. Go without me.’" and "I mean, after all, two cans of condensed milk aren’t such a big deal." presents the idea that he lied to him because the escape plan was devised and he just wanted some food.
In 1630, a religious group with beliefs based on extremely conservative principles landed in New England. They were known as Puritans, and with their leader, John Winthrop, they founded the Massachusetts Bay Colony. The Puritans had come to America so they could worship in the way they chose. As a result, their laws and lifestyles were based on Puritanism, making their culture unique among colonies of the time.<span>

The subordinate clause is "Which he was just learning to play" and it is an adjective clause because it describes what the "tennis" was like. Tennis is an object and this subordinate clause further describes that it is the tennis that he was trying to learn.
