Answer:

An example of satire here is: "Those two old brothers had been having a pretty hot argument a couple of days before, and had ended by agreeing to decide it by a bet, which is the English way of settling everything"

Explanation:

When we talk about a satire, we need to know that is a technique that authors used to express humor, exaggeration, irony or to expose or ridicule people's behavior or vices. Here we have some irony in the sentence especially in this part: "which is the English way of settling everything" Here he is making fun of the way that English people resolve their problems. He is trying to say that problems are serious and to resolve them you need more than just a bet.

How does Bruno’s behaviour indicate that animals too have emotions, affection, memory and individual traits of character?

Damm [24]

Answer:

This question relates to “The Bond Love”:

Bruno is a bear that was found in the field by the author of the story who gives it to his wife. Both take great affection as Bruno grows. Despite being a wild animal, the bear is kind and playful with the family and even the other pets that live with it. After a while, Bruno is sent to the zoo leaving the author's wife and Bruno very sad. After three months, the wife visits Bruno at the zoo and the feeling of happiness of both is incomparable. This demonstrates that animals also have feelings, emotions and deep bonds with those who care for them and treat them well. Animals do not forget those they have loved and especially those who have given love.

At the end, she got permission to take Bruno back home.

5. There aren't windows in these rooms.

2 Circle the correct form. 

It's a very nice house. There's a large garden and there are some trees in the garden. I think they are apple trees. There's a living room with a big blue sofa. In the kitchen there aren't any shelves but there are some cupboards. They are quite old but the fridge and cooker are new. And the bathroom's fantastic. It isn't very big but there's a shower and a bath!

Explanation:

The plural is formed by adding -s to most regular nouns. Besides, verb forms, indefinite articles and demonstratives also change from singular to plural.

On the other hand, subjects pronouns are used to refer to a thing mentioned before, while there is and there are indicate existence.
