Michelle highlighted this sentence in her favorite Western paperback novel: “The bandit weaseled his way through the throng of w

A It shows the author’s sympathy for the bandit. B It shows the author’s disdain for the bandit and his actions. C It provides a concrete description of the bandit’s appearance. D It provides a point of comparison so the reader can better understand the bandit.

Answer: C. It provides a concrete description of the bandit’s appearance.

Explanation: In literature, writers can use a wide variety of words to portray a character's actions or personality. The reader then imagines a scene that is closer to what the writer has in mind. Michelle used the verb "weasel" to contribute to the tone of the sentence, and imply that not only was the bandit passing through women, but he was sneaking and achieving his purpose by rudely making his way and scaping. This choice creates a better description of how he appeared in the scene.

Answer:

I carefully prepared a homemade pizza crust and put on it the very freshest and tasty ingredients.

Explanation:

Why? The adverb, as it says, modifies the verb.

A lot of times, not all the time, they end in -ly

- In the first one "<em>most</em>" does nothing and the sentence doesn't seem to even have a verb. (to run, to walk, etc)

- In the second one it is getting closer, but too is not the adverb

- In the third one homemade is a adjective / describing word, not an adverb

- In the fourth one <em>carefully </em>is an adverb and it is <em>italiczed</em>.

<u>Trick:</u>

- Stacey ran quickly.

What did she do? Ran. How did she do it? Quickly.

Verb = ran

Adverb = quickly

Hope this helps, good luck!

(I typed out a lot more to try and explain it since you said you don't understand it at all)
