Answer:

For seven nights he sneaks into the old man's room and watches the sleeping man.

The best answer is the first option: 
<span>For seven nights, he sneaks into the old man’s room and watches the sleeping man.

A good  way to select the right answer is to read all of the options out loud. Which combination of the sentences sounds the most fluid and logical when you read it, and best preserves the meaning of the sentence? The first option does this best. </span>

Which line from “The Medicine Bag” best illustrates Martin’s conflict with Grandpa’s arrival?
elena-s [515]

Answer:

B.“His get-up wasn’t out of place on the reservation, but it sure was here, and I wanted to sink right through the pavement.”

Explanation:

The short story "The Medicine Bag" by Virginia Driving Hawk Sneve tells the story of a young boy named Martin who used to brag about his Sioux grandfather Joe Iron Shell. But his demeanor changed the moment his grandfather decided to come to his home in person.

Martin loved talking about his grandfather, telling his friends who have a picture of Martin's grandfather as someone larger than life, making <em>"Grandpa and the reservation sound  glamorous"</em>. And everything went well as long as grandpa stayed in the reservation but the moment he decided to visit Martin's family in Iowa, he felt unsure. This is because his friends will now see the real grandfather he had boasted so much about and then see the reality of the man they had thought to be an impressive and great man. The main conflict is shown when Martin admitted he <em>"wanted to sink right through the pavement"</em>. He felt ashamed of the way his grandfather had dressed, admitting that his get-up was out of place for his neighborhood even if it wasn't for the reservation.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

After school, I looked for books about Mars. (I need help finding the Adjective Phrase please)
iris [78.8K]
“About Mars” is the Adjective Phrase.

Adjective phrase describes “what kind of which ones”

So for example here

“After school, I looked for books about Mars.”

“About Mars” describes the kind of books so that makes it an Adjective phrase.

I hope this helps.
