Answer:

1. Darla set up a studio because she enjoyed painting.

2. As Aaron was having a midnight snack, he heard a loud noise coming from the basement.

Explanation:

An adverb clause is a group of related words that have at least a subject and a verb, and whose function is to modify or add detail to adjectives, verbs or other adverbs.

This type of clause often answers questions such as "Why?", "How?", "When?", "Where?" and "In what circumstances?", and they are always introduced by a subordinating conjunction such as <em>because</em><em>, since, </em><em>as</em><em>, while, though, even though, after, as long as, before, even </em>and<em> until.</em>

In sentence 1,<em> because she enjoyed painting</em> is the adverb clause because it gives further detail of the action "set up" and it also answers to the Why question: Why did Darla set up a studio? Answer: Because she enjoyed painting.

In sentence 2, <em>As Aaron was having a midnight snack</em> is the adverb clause because it gives further detail of the action "heard" and it also provides information of when or in what circumstances Aaron heard a loud noise coming from the basement.

Submit an example of a kenning from Beowulf and explain who or what it refers to
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

An example of Kenning from Beowulf is 'whale-roadd' used to define the sea.

Explanation:

Kenning is a figurative language usually found in Old English and Old Norse poetry. This figurative language is used by combining two words to describe an object. This figurative language has been used extensively in Beowulf, the oldest surviving text.

<u>One of the example from the text Beowulf is 'whale-road.' The phrase 'whale-road' is combined with two nouns 'whale' and 'road' to describe metamorphically 'the sea.' Addressing the sea to be a road for the whale.</u>

<u>A kenning is combined with two words, that is, a base noun and a determinant.</u>

Based on the context of each excerpt from N. Scott Momaday's The Way to Rainy Mountain, choose the word that most closely matche
Maurinko [17]

Fragile - tenuous: Whatever they were in the mountains, they could be no more. However tenuous their well-being, however much they had suffered and would suffer again, they had found a way out of the wilderness.

Tenuous means fragile or delicate. After the people found their way out of the wilderness, they were most likely fragile from a lack of proper care and nutrition.

Lobby - beg and barter: In order to consummate the ancient sacrifice—to impale the head of a buffalo bull upon the medicine tree—a delegation of old men journeyed into Texas, there to beg and barter for an animal from the Goodnight herd.

The verb lobby means to persuade. In this passage the old men are trying to persuade someone for an animal.

Pensive - brooding: My grandmother was spared the humiliation of those high gray walls by eight or ten years, but she must have known from birth the affliction of defeat, the dark brooding of old warriors.

Pensive means to be deep in thought. Brooding also means to be deep in thought but usually over something that has a negative outcome. The person brooding usually wishes to change what has happened.

Antagonist - Enmities: Some of them painted their faces and carried the scars of old and cherished enmities.

Enmities is another word for something that is hated, just like an enemy. An antagonist goes against a person or thing and is often hated or strongly disliked so this would be the best choice.
