One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin. He lay

on his armor-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked.
"What's happened to me?" he thought. It wasn't a dream.

Gregor then turned to look out the window at the dull weather. Drops of rain could be heard hitting the pane, which made him feel quite sad. "How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense", he thought, but that was something he was unable to do because he was used to sleeping on his right, and in his present state couldn't get into that position. However hard he threw himself onto his right, he always rolled back to where he was. He must have tried it a hundred times, shut his eyes so that he wouldn't have to look at the floundering legs, and only stopped when he began to feel a mild, dull pain there that he had never felt before.

There was a cautious knock at the door near his head. "Gregor," somebody called-it was his mother-"it's quarter to seven. Didn't you want to go somewhere?" Gregor was shocked when he heard his own voice answering, it could hardly be recognized as the voice he had had before. As if from deep inside him, there was a painful and uncontrollable squeaking mixed in with it, the words could be made out at first but then there was a sort of echo which made them unclear. Gregor had wanted to give a full answer and explain everything, but in the circumstances contented himself with saying: "Yes, mother, yes, thank-you, I'm getting up now."

I've answered a question exactly like this before... what are the odds!

Gregor didn't seem to surprised , the text explicitly states. "How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense." Meaning that he wasn't to worried about the transformation. The only time he did act surprised was when he answered his mom after she knocked on the door, " <span>Gregor was shocked when he heard his own voice answering, it could hardly be recognized as the voice he had had before." That's why I feel like Gregor was maybe even used to being transformed, because he did not act very worried, or surprised. </span>

How do paragraphs 9-11 contribute to the author’s explanation of the Internet?
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

A. This section explains the distinction between the World Wide Web and the Internet, which addresses a misunderstanding many users have.

Explanation:

It is not the answer B because it in no way criticizes the creators, it only provides information. There is no opinion given which means it cannot be D either. The answer C is incorrect as the world wide web is an application and not a computer network system.

Which line from "The Medicine Bag" contains dialogue?
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

The line from "The Medicine Bag" that contains dialogue is:

D. "You found the money in my boots?" he asked Mom.

Explanation:

"The Medicine Bag" is a short story by author Virginia Driving Hawk Sneve in which the theme concerns heritage and culture.

Every option given contains something that was said by someone. However, in options A through C, we do not have it in the form of a dialogue. Those options are reporting what was said. Notice that none of them uses quotation marks. Option D, on the other hand, is written in the form of a dialogue. It has quotation marks to separate the narrator's words from the character's words. For that reason, letter D is the best option.

Is this sentence correct. He left all his shopping on the bus. ?​

It is correct but you could use words that people would more understand.

If you were referring to groceries or things you buy from the store, you could say:

He left all his items on the bus.

He left all his groceries on the bus.
