Hey there,
In the sentence: <span> That tall building with black and white spiral stripes is actually a famous lighthouse.
Based on my research of the word "adjective phrase" and understanding the sentence from above, the adjective that would be in there would be "black and white spiral stripes". That would be it.
Hope this helps.</span>
Answer:
Difficult times can make someone lie.
Explanation:
In the story 'Condensed Milk', the author tries to communicate the idea that it is alright to lie when someone has bad intentions towards you. Though no specific phrase mentions this idea, we can understand through the whole story that the author did what was best for him which was by lying to Shestakov that he would go along with him if he bring him food. It was such a difficult time for him that he had to lie just to get some food.
The lines " 'You know,’ I said, carefully licking the spoon, ‘I changed my mind. Go without me.’" and "I mean, after all, two cans of condensed milk aren’t such a big deal." presents the idea that he lied to him because the escape plan was devised and he just wanted some food.
The main idea is about freedom or being independent.
Explanation:
- This is an excerpt from Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer
- This is about a man who went into the wild on adventure. he met many people who were willing to help him. The main idea was McCandless wanted to be free from people who show their authority.
