The first time I rode a roller coaster, I was nine years old. I remember feeling both terrified and excited. I had goosebumps, a

nd the hairs on my arms were standing straight up. My sister and I waited in line for an hour, which only made me more nervous.
Which sentence is the best example of a vivid sensory detail?

I'd say the third sentence.

'I had goosebumps, and the hairs on my arms were standing straight up'

That has the most imagery.

Answer:

I had goosebumps, and the hairs on my arms were standing straight up

Explanation:

This is an example of vivid sensory detail. Why is it <em>vivid</em>? Because we can feel what the speaker felt. The speaker's use of language can reconstruct an accurate picture of the situation. Why is it an example of <em>sensory  detail</em>? Because it appeals to the senses, in this case to the way in which the skin reacts when terror and excitement are felt. The hairs from the arms standing on its ends and  the presence of goosebumps appeal to the sight. We can<em> picture / see  </em>the scene.

What is the setting in the raven? please provide textual evidence.
Step2247 [10]

The setting in this poem includes both time and place. The author first gives us a sense of both mood and time with the first line:

"Once upon a midnight dreary,"

We as readers are then told that the author/narrator is in his study, as evidence is given of the books, the bust of Pallas, and the other ecoutrements that lend themselves to studious labors. We are certain that this is, at the very least, a room, as Poe refers to his "chamber door" multiple times throughout the poem. In closing, we can conclude that this poem is set in the 1800s, on a dark and stormy night, in the author's place of academic study and leisure.

5. What is the historical backdrop of the story "The Last Lesson"?
natka813 [3]
Can you send a picture? I need more information about the article but I am pretty sure that it is A) the French invasion of Germany.

Expansion
The story, 'The Last Lesson' has been set in the background of the Franco-Prussian war that was fought in 1870-71 between Prussia and France. The Prussians captured the districts of Alsace and Lorraine. New orders were issued according to which German language was to be taught in place of French in these two districts. It doesn’t have anything to do with World War l or ll so it have to be A) or D). The Germans didn’t invade Alsace, the Prussians did so D) can’t be it. The only answer left is A) so you’re answer would have to be A).
