I believe what he meant was that his belief in god was dead and that god to him was dead. Just like how many Jews were dying so was their hopes and beliefs due to their circumstances they were facing at the time.

Use the following definitions to answer the question. evade: 1. (verb) to cleverly escape somebody or something, to avoid invade
irina1246 [14]

The sentence that contains the correct word usage of evade versus invade is "Corn leaf aphids invaded the crop and caused damage to the plants." If we replace the word invaded with its definition we can see why. The sentence would read, "Corn leaf aphids entered the crop and caused damage to the plant. This makes sense. A corn leaf aphid is a pest, so it would not make sense if they evaded or left the plant and caused damage. That would be a good thing.

You can use the same technique to see why the other three sentences use the incorrect word.

<u>The thieves were able to invade being arrested by the police. </u>

This would read, "The thieves were able to enter being arrested by the police. This does not make sense. Rather, it should read, "The thieves were able to evade being arrested by the police." Thus, meaning they were able to cleverly escape being arrested.

<u>Guerrilla forces evaded the capital city and announced their power.</u>

This would read, "Guerrilla forces cleverly escaped the capital city and announced their power." While this sentence could make sense in the right context, it is more likely that they forcefully entered the capital city, or invaded it, in order to announce their power.

<u>Sheila tried to evade the private party by bribing the security guard.</u>

This would read, "Sheila tried to cleverly escape the private party by bribing the security guard." Again, this could make sense in the right context, but it is most likely that she bribed the security guard in order to enter a party that she wanted to intend. Therefore, the use of "invade" makes more sense.

How does contrast and contradiction serve as a better way of describing a
pav-90 [236]

When the author relates a particular event, he encourages the reader to follow along. When this happens, the reader is meant to focus on the story and understand the events that transpired. However, the reader might get distracted, or he might fail to identify the specific aspects that the author wants to highlight.

By using contrast and contradictions, the author encourages the reader to focus on a new idea that is significantly different to the one already presented. By doing so, the author forces the reader to pause, rethink and reevaluate the information presented, thus increasing his understanding of the subject.

What does the underlined passage in section two of "Specimen Days" use to make it feel real to the reader?
Annette [7]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The text shows great description of ones' setting, using adjectives to describe their surroundings.

There's no dialogue between two characters, and the narrator is not speaking to theirself.

The narrator isn't using personal experience because that would mean it would be relative to the reader, to which not every reader has experienced this exact situation, or anything like it.

hope this helps!!
