Answer: difficulty.

Explanation: a direct object is a noun, or noun phrase, denoting a person or thing that is the recipient of the action of a transitive verb, for example, in the sentence "my brother ate a watermelon" the transitive verb is "ate" and the direct object (the recipient of the action) is "watermelon." In the given sentence the transitive verb is "increased" and the direct object is "difficulty" notice that it answers the question "what did he increase?"

Answer:

Sophia's life flashed before her eyes. "Jessica! Jessica help me up!" Sophia's fingers were sliping. If Jessica didn't help her out Sophia would fall to her doom.

"No way! You stole Daniel from me and now you must pay!" Jessica roared.

Sophia scream right back at her, "I did not! He is my best friend! That's all we are! Please- AHHH!!!" Sophia hung only by one hand. She had tears running down her face. All she had done was hug Daniel. 2 fingers left on the cliff and Jessica still didn't care. "Jessica help me! Please! I'll explain everything!"

Jessica looked at Sophia. She noticed how honest and weak she looked. She grabbed Sophia's arm and hauled her up. "Start speaking before I push you off this mountain."

"I've been friends with Daniel since I was 5. He is a brother to me. Jessica, I would NEVER love him any other way. Please, believe me. You can push me off now that you heard me." Sophia as trustworthy as ever stood there. Knowing that Jessica would push her off.

"Can you forgive me Sophia?"

"I'll always forgive you. No matter what you do."

"In that case..." Jessica pushed Sophia of the cliff.

It had been the most surprising thing that had ever happened to them, and probably ever would.

Choose the most effective way to revise the following sentence for positive emphasis: Students cannot park in Lot C until August
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Students will be able to park in Lot C from August 26 on.

Explanation:

Giving positive emphasis to a sentence means writing or saying it in a way that focuses on what people can do instead of what they cannot. To do so, it is important to avoid negative words and connotations. When that is not possible, one must try to keep the negative compact, presenting it in the middle of the sentence.

The sentence "Students cannot park in Lot C until August 25" has a negative emphasis, since it states a prohibition, a limitation. We could revise for positive emphasis in the following manner:

- Students will be able to park in Lot C from August 26 on.

How did the rise of a merchant class foreshadow the rise of feudalism?
777dan777 [17]

The rise of a merchant class foreshadow the rise of feudalism.

<h3>What is feudalism?</h3>

It should be noted that feudalism, was the combination of the legal, military, economic, and cultural customs that flourished in medieval Europe between the 9th and 15th centuries.

All of it started to alter with the development of the merchant class. While still ostensibly under the control of their primitive overlords, started to amass enough wealth and influence to require more freedom. Many medieval kings did not join them, but those that did tried to stifle and oppress the burgeoning prosperous shipper class.

Therefore, to whom did the shippers swing? Lord, of course! The monarchs saw this as an opportunity to regain control over their rogue vassals. As this trend continued, it elevated sovereignty to the form of unrestrained governance that emerged as the Middle Ages came to an end. Although it is a distortion, it nevertheless conveys the main idea.
