Answer:

The word for that definition is "Thanes"

Explanation:

Thanes is a man who held land granted by the king or by a military nobleman, ranking between an ordinary freeman and a hereditary noble. The thane became a member of a territorial nobility, and the dignity of thanehood was attainable by those who fulfilled certain conditions. In like manner a successful thane might hope to become an earl. There were others who were thanes because of their birth, and thus thanehood was partly inherited and partly acquired.  

Functionally, the Thane was a territorial administrator, acting under a territorial Earl, or royal steward. Though thanes often held land within the region they administered, this was coincidental; providing land tenure was simply the way of paying for their services, the location of their lands not being intrinsically linked to the authority they wielded in any particular region.

Rings on the scales of some fish show the age of the fish. <br> transitive<br> intransitive
8090 [49]

Answer:

The verb in the sentence is:

a) transitive

Explanation:

A transitive verb exerts its action on an object, which means it can only express its meaning completely if that object is mentioned. In the sentence "Rings on the scales of some fish show the age of the fish," the verb is "show". To find the object, we have to ask the verb a question: the rings show what? They show the age of the fish. "the age of the fish" is the complete object of the verb "show". Therefore, the verb "show" is transitive.

In lines 18-20 ("I think that... I think right"), the author uses comparisons primarily to
Arte-miy333 [17]

It can be inferred that the author uses comparisons primarily to " support his previous assertions with evidence" (Option E)

<h3>What is an inference?</h3>

Poem: bag of bone
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

A. As the speaker turns from mourning murder victims  to accusing their executioner, the poem focuses on  the injustice of the dictator's rule.

Explanation:

 

<u> A. is the right answer. Around line 30 of the poem the shift occurs, the poet talks about the dictator as the murderer and points finger at him as the unjust ruler and tyrant</u>. The author is explaining how it is the dictator’s fault that millions are dead and how he also has “the heart and the skull”, and so does the audience that claps and supports him, but which can become the victim as well.

B. is not the right answer. The poem does not explore the experiences of survivors' feelings of guilt.

C. is not the right answer. The poem does not call people to action against the dictator.

D. is not the right answer. There is no part about securing closure for certain, and the poem ends ambiguously.

Why is this not an appropriate research paper topic? Why driver education should be offered free of charge at my high school.
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Here are the options to the questions:  

A. It is too broad of a subject.  

B. It is too narrow of a subject.

C. It is not re-searchable.  

D. It involves opinion.

The answer is B. It is too narrow of a subject.

A research paper is a form of academic writing based on the original study on a specific topic by its author and the review and interpretation of the results of the research. Based on the above question, the reason why driver education should be offered free of charge at my high school is not an appropriate re-searchable paper is because it is too narrow, not much to put down. The topic is a good argumentative/editorial piece, but not ideal for a research paper.
