Answer:

Explanation:                  The letter of the law versus the spirit of the law is an idiomatic antithesis. When one obeys the letter of the law but not the spirit, one is obeying the literal interpretation of the words (the "letter") of the law, but not necessarily the intent of those who wrote the law.

jekas [21]

The correct answer is letter b.

The excerpt is written in the Simple Past and narrates a series of events that happened in a sequence.

Notice the verbs in the Simple Past : wept, wailed, fell, faded and died.

There is a verb missing  in the part " the earth stiff and cold"  The verb is grow, the Simple Past form is grew, therefore " the earth grew stiff and cold" is the correct way.

Letter A is wrong because there's a verb missing.

Letter C and letter D " the earth was growing stiff and cold" the verb grow is in the Past Continuos, " the leaves were falling from the sorrowing  trees"  the verb fall is also in the Past Continous breaking the pattern stablished.

1. In "The Brown Chest," what is significant about the boy finding his own drawings in the chest?
ELEN [110]
There are a couple points that are significant about the boy finding his own drawings in the chest.

The chest was long the repository of things important to his mother. Finding his drawings in there showed him how his mother felt about him. He had created something that his mother deemed so important that she could not throw away.

The chest was also the repository of old things, things from the past. By finding his drawings in there, it was proof that his childhood was over, a thing from the past.
