8 LOUIS: (holding up a newspaper article) Look at this! A pipe burst, and the thrift store on Market Street was severely flooded

.
9 EDDIE: Check out those torrents of water in the picture.

10 LOUIS: (reading from paper) A deluge of water drenched the clothing on lower displays. Employees attempted to salvage some items, but the majority of the merchandise was destroyed.

11 EDDIE: People contributed most of those clothes after spring-cleaning. The store lost all of its recent donations!

12 ROSA: That thrift store had a great selection of inexpensive clothes. Postponing a reopening is bad for the families that rely on that store.

13 LOUIS: Can’t they just dry off the clothes?

14 ROSA: After so much exposure to moisture, they have probably begun to reek.

15 EDDIE: I don’t even like gross, smelly clothes for sports! They should smell clean and fresh just like fabric softener. (EDDIE smiles dreamily, imagining fluffy clothes right out of the dryer.)

16 ROSA: I’m sure Eddie’s not the only one who appreciates clean fabric. We should try to help restock the store.

17 EDDIE: I’ll design pamphlets to encourage people to donate! We can distribute them in school tomorrow.

C) The students want the owners to help them find soccer uniforms. D) The characters want the owners to help them find soccer equipment.

Ainat [17]
Long sentences

KIM [24]

Answer:

Title: The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Format: Play

First, learn the book's plot by reading it thoroughly. List the story's characters. The story plot informs the script. Make sure the script follows the story's chronology. Keep in mind that you're telling The Little Prince's story, not your own. Once the script is complete, look for actors that fit the characters' demeanor and appearance.

Actors can audition by simply reciting the script. Prop creators, backstage managers, lighting directors, wardrobe managers, etc. should be on the production crew. Once you've cast the play, have rehearsals. Always include the key characters. Scene-by-scene, practice the complete script. Budget for your production team. Be resourceful and don't go over budget. Practice till showtime. Also, prepare invites and play publications (i.e., date of the play, place of performance). Enjoy the performance and share the narrative passionately.

Explanation:

There is no wrong answer to this question.

This is just my opinion; feel free to alter it as you see fit.

Grammer<br> how do i tell the simple past tense apart from the past continuous tense
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The main difference between past simple and past continuous tense is that:

  • we use<u> past simple tense</u> when something happened at some time in past. We also commonly use this tense with past time adverbs (yesterday, last night, two days ago, etc.)

For example: John called his friend yesterday.

  • we use <u>past continuous tense</u> if an action occurred in the past and <u>lasted for a period of time.</u>

Example: I was reading a book all day yesterday.

We used past continuous tense because the action of reading lasted for some time (a whole day in this case).

What is the significance of Argo’s death and why might Homer have included it in this poem?
77julia77 [94]

Argos was Odysseus's hunting dog and his faithful pet. Even when its owner left it to fight in the battle of Troy, it waited for him for years and years, with unwavering loyalty. When Odysseus finally returned to Ithaca, disguised as a beggar, a very aged Argos recognized him and felt incredibly happy to see him again, dying not long after, as it could finally fulfill its wish of seeing him once again. Argos is included in the poem to represent undying loyalty.
