Answer:
It was on a sunny evening, my parents were out of town for the weekend and I thought it was a good idea to invite some friends over and have a party.
The party started soon after with music blaring, enough liquor (even though we were not up to eighteen), and plenty of necking.
The night was going on really well as my crush Tabitha seemed very interested in me that evening. We were walking hand in hand and she laughed at all my lame jokes, perhaps she was tipsy.
My dad had a gun in his bedroom upstairs which he always kept locked. I did not put too much thought to it, but quite a number of teenagers were in my parents' room, doing what teenagers do best.
Suddenly I heard a loud bang, we all went upstairs quickly and saw Raphael lying in a pool of blood. It appeared that he was playing with the gun, perhaps not knowing it was loaded and mistakenly squeezed the trigger.
A once-happy party turned sour in the twinkling of an eye. All I wanted was for the poor lad to be safe. I called 911 and he was taken to ICU.
Answer:
A signal phrase is one method to introduce paraphrases, summaries, and direct quotations.
Explanation:
An MLA signal phrase is one that shows the reader of a text that a direct quote, summary, or paraphrase is about to happen. For this, the MLA signal phrase presents clear signs such as presenting words such as "according to" and "indicates," so that the reader has no doubt that the text will suffer an external consequence of a text by another author.
This excerpt probably should have included the verse following it, which
is "Here is Odysseus' hall, no hall like this!" So they are standing at
the gate at the home of Odysseus.
He has in fact made a long
journey home, so B could be correct. The journey did require patience
and endurance, so A could be correct. But I would go with D, happiness
upon returning home.
A reasonable argument could be made for
all of the above. Symbolism can be subjective, and each reader may
interpret things differently.
C. A manuscript. If only one answer is allowed. A primary source is a document that is created at the time in which the events it describes is occurring. A manuscript is something that is written by hand and therefore the author would be describing events or ideas that occurring at the time of creating the manuscript. A textbook references other ideas and is a secondary source. A fiction book describes unreal events. A journal article is published in a collection and often refers to other previous events.
