Answer:

c. By involving the narrator with an odd cast of characters.

Explanation:

Washington Irving's collective book of "Tales of a Traveler" includes the section of "The Adventures of the Mysterious Picture". This story deals with the strange, somewhat horror story of a group of travelers staying in a mansion of one of their friends.

This group were then told by their host that there is a haunted chamber but it will be seen whose room was the next morning. They will have to wait to see who the hero of the night will be. This story is infused with elements or horror, with the narrator of the story unable to sleep peacefully in the chamber allotted to him. This excerpt given in the question exemplify Gothic fiction in involving an odd cast of characters with the narrator.

By summarizing the excerpt we can extract the correct answer among the given options. We can observe the dialogues and certain characters in the excerpt. The characters look odd because one of them is Irish captain, another one is gentleman with the ruined head and gentleman with the nose. And there is nothing extra presented in the excerpt. Therefore, the correct answer is the third option: by involving the narrator with an odd cast of characters

Convert the following sentence from compound to complex sentence.
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

As much as water is an endangered resource, we cannot live without it.

Explanation:

A compound sentence is a sentence that has two independent clauses, meaning there should be a conjunction to connect the two clauses (FANBOYS) or a semicolon.

A complex sentence has one independent clause and one dependent clause.

Note that independent clauses can stand alone as a sentence, meaning they have both a subject and a predicate.

On the other hand, a dependent clause can not stand alone as a sentence, has both a subject and verb, and will most often start with a subordinating conjunction.

<u>We have the sentence:</u>

Water is an endangered resource and we cannot live without it.

<u>We can make it:</u>

As much as water is an endangered resource, we cannot live without it.

As much as is the subordinating conjunction that makes the first clause dependent.

"We cannot live without it" is the independent clause.

You can remove "As much as" and replace it with any subordinating conjunction that makes sense, it's just hard to find a perfect replacement for the conjunction "and."

Tell us about the most significant challenge you've faced or something important that didn't go according to plan. How did you m
Serggg [28]

Answer:

One of the most significant challenge that I have faced is as follow:

  • It was the days of my fellowship at Amal Academy. We have to complete our assignments and project every week. The problem was that I was doing this fellowship along with my job. I haven't the computer with me at that time as I was away from home.
  • I have to live in an apartment at my work place so instead of losing hope, I asked my cousin for help and in return I offered him my services as tutor.
  • So, after the work, I used the local transport to go for my aunt's home. I used to do all my work at the computer by completing the online video content and answering the reflection questions. After that, I used to taught my cousin Mathematics as per deal.
  • With hard work, I won the weekly project prize in the second week of the fellowship and my fellows started to praise my hard work as I was the one who used to start the week's assignment first.
  • Besides, I always help my fellows and that's why I have build very valuable friends at that place.
  • With the passion, courage and determination, I was able not to complete my fellowship but I also completed it with honors. Moreover, my cousin also completed his matriculation exams with good marks.
