Answer:
b) The cries and laughter of children filled the air as they waded through the fountain, avoiding the different spouts of water.
Explanation:
When Cassandra hears weeping and laughing kids wading through the fountain in Washington Square Park on a beautiful day, it's the line from the narrative that most captures her sentiments about being there. This sentence indicates that Cassandra is enjoying the sights and sounds of the park on a beautiful day.
- a) She sighed and opened her eyes to the magnificent Washington Square Arch. Cassandra's feelings about being in the park are not revealed in this line. Based on the fact that she sighed before opening her eyes, we can only presume she was tired or bored.
- c) Some students lounged on the grass, while others played instruments as they went around the park. This sentence does not indicate Cassandra's feelings about being in the park. We can only assume she was taken aback by the variety of people she saw while strolling around the park.
- d) It seemed as though the fountain water at Washington Square Park Fountain was encrusted with hundreds of diamonds. This sentence does not indicate Cassandra's feelings about being in the park. We can only speculate as to why she was unable to speak or respond to the sight of the fountain.
Answer:
It makes the imagined addressee feel more present to the reader.
Explanation:
In this poem, the author refers to his addressee as a "master poet." This master poet is most likely God.

His good intentions and sincere desire to help the afflicted motivate him.
Unfortunately, Hale is also vulnerable. His zeal for discovering witchcraft allows others, particularly Abigail, to manipulate him. The amount of evidence for witchcraft when he arrives in Salem overwhelms him. Although Hale remains determined not to declare witchcraft unless he can prove it, the expectations of the people of Salem sweep him up, and, as a result, he takes their evidence at face value, rather than investigating it himself.
Answer:
It is a complex sentence.
Explanation:
There are four basic types of sentences: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex.
A complex sentence has one independent clause joined to a dependent clause by a subordinating conjunction.
An independent clause has a subject and a predicate, and can stand alone as a sentence, as it makes complete sense. A dependent clause cannot stand alone.
In this case, "Kenneth sat down on the rickety old chair" is an example of an independent clause. "as it abruptly collapsed beneath him" is a dependent clause.
