8. Basketball is generally better than tennis. I chose this because the author picked basketball and its best qualities.
9. The boy and the old man are very poor, but they are happy it is referenced in the passage and Patrasche is the dogs name.
10. The old man and boy were never able to make enough food. They were poor and didn't have a big garden to grow an abundance of food.
That's my take on the questions, hope it helps you.

Characters: Kate, Darby, Tracy, Mr. Jacks

Setting: takes place in an airplane at night.

Purpose: I think the purpose it's to tell how Kate is reacting inside the airplane before it gets in an accident with no food when she is trying to scape....

Conflict: all the passengers got trapped on the airplane at night wit no supplies.

rising action: the moment that the story says "She ran past one plane after another. They were all parked in the hangar, just as they had been the day the force fields came down around the airport, trapping fifteen hundred people inside. The force fields seemed to be electromagnetic prisons, although no one knew for sure what they were made from or for what purpose. They appeared around cities and small towns, around farms and islands, and even around tiny villages in the middle of Africa. They were everywhere—and nobody knew who put them there."

Climax: when she finally scape from the airplane, thanks to a space bellow the mirror.

Resolution conflict: She scape from the airport but she fell fear and guilty because on the back of the mirror that she scape says " Use this to get out, from Kate" so she and Mr. Jacks were the only ones how scape.

I hope this help : )

Answer:

The missing question is Which sentence from the passage is complex?

The answer is: The panther crept into a cave because it was afraid.

Explanation:

A complex sentence has an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. Independent clauses are the ones that have meaning on their own so, they can stand alone as sentences. On the other hand, dependent clauses can not stand alone; they need the support of another clause to make sense.

In the sentence <em>"The panther crept into a cave because it was afraid."</em> the independent clause is <em>The panther crept into a cave </em>while the dependent clause is <em>because it was afraid</em>. The word "<em>because</em>" is subordinating conjunction since it is a word that connects the two clauses.

Which excerpt from Part 3 of The Odyssey is cited properly in MLA style? “They scrambled to their places by the rowlocks / and a
maks197457 [2]

“They scrambled to their places by the rowlocks / and all in line dipped oars in the gray sea” (Homer 6-7).

In-text MLA citations should include the author's last name and page number when available. The citation must be after the quotation, but outside of the quoted text. The citation should be in parenthesis and not include a comma between the author's last name and page number. The comma is extraneous. In order to make it clear that the parenthetical citation belongs to the quoted text and not the sentence following, there needs to be a comma after the citation - not before.
