How do Kevin’s interactions with his father and his teacher, Waldo, help develop the theme within the story? Provide evidence fr

docker41 [41]

One theme of this story is coming of age, which is revealed through Kevin’s experiences at school and home. In the story, Kevin feels caught between his interactions with his father at home and his teacher at school. Waldo, Kevin’s teacher, humiliates Kevin because his father helped him complete his homework, which is incorrect. Consider the character interaction at the end of the story between Kevin and his father:

“How did it go today?” his father asked.

“All right.” They kept silent until they reached the corner of their own street.

“What about the Latin?”

Kevin faltered, feeling a babyish desire to cry.

“How was it?”

“OK. Fine.”

“Good. I was a bit worried about it. It was done in a bit of a rush. Son, your Da’s a genius.” He smacked him with the paper again. Kevin laughed and slipped his hand into the warmth of his father’s overcoat pocket, deep to the elbow.

Kevin has the “babyish desire to cry,” but he doesn’t let his father know about the problems at school. His restraint shows that through this experience Kevin has matured, and he is protecting his father from feeling the humiliation from his school experience.

3. My sister (don't like, doesn't like) school.

4. (Is, Are) a farmer's life stressful?

5. My parents (don't listen to, doesn't listen to) rock music.

Present continuous questions:

1. Are you cleaning the car?

2. Am I looking at the correct page?

3. Is the dog eating its dinner?

Present simple and continuous: (read, have, interview, watch, write, work, be)

1. Ben reads a book after lunch every day.

2. We are working at a club for three weeks in the holidays.

3. Cathy watches all the soap operas on TV.

4.Mick has a stressful lifestyle, he is a police officer.

5.I am writing a book about London. I am interviewing some businessman at the moment.

Explanation:

We use the present continuous to talk about a thing that is happening or that we are doing at the moment, to talk about plans and temporary situations.

To write affirmative sentences:

He, she, it + is+ verb with ing. For example, he is cooking.

We, you, they, you + are+ verb with ing. For example, you are watching a film.

I + am+ verb with ing. For example, I am running.

To make negative sentences:

He, she, it+ is not /isn't+ verb with ing. For example, He isn't cooking at the moment.

We, you, they, you+ are not/ aren't + verb with ing. For example, you aren't watching a film.

I+ am not+ verb with ing. For example, I am not running.

If we want to make questions, we write first the auxiliary verb and then the subject and the verb with ing. For example, Are you watching the show? , or is she cooking?

We use the present simple to talk about habits, general truths, and to express emotions.

To make affirmative sentences:

He, she it+ verb with s. For example, He drives to school every morning.

We, you, they, you+ verb without s. For example, they go to the bar every Saturday.

I + verb without s. For example, I love pasta.

To make negative sentences:

He, she it+ does not /doesn't + verb without s. For example, She doesn't drive to school every morning.

We, you, they, you, i+ do not/ don't+ verb without s. For example, We don't go to the bar every Saturday.

To make questions we write first the auxiliary does or do, depending on the subject, the subject and the verb without s. For example, do you like pizza? or does he eat lunch?

One or more hyphens are used correctly in all of these sentences except which one?

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

C. Helen told Fred that she would love him ever-more.

Explanation:

The hyphen is a punctuation mark that is used to separate syllables of a single word and also join words that are to be taken as "one meaning or idea". When it is used in such a way, then the word is called or referred to as "a hyphenated" word.

Among the given options, the sentence that requires no use of the hyphen is the third sentence. Here, "ever-more" doesn't need to be joined nor are they a single word. 

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

In her poem “Dew,” Sara Teasdale uses a conceit in order to illustrate _____.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

The correct answer is D.

In her poem "Dew," Teasdale compares the effect dew has on the ground with how her lover makes her feel.

She explains that, just as dew makes the grass, the fences, the pasture bars and the cobwebs shine, so does the love of her lover makes her see things with a new light; it makes her see even the most common things as beautiful and special.
