English

Answer:

C

Explanation:

I said C because it is an example of an allusion. Therefore, an allusion is when a piece of writing tries to hint at a person, place, thing, literature, or art.

Please i’m begging y’all to help me, the questions are in the picture and the passage is down below.
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

1. The shrubs and grassland.

It says in the passage the "To the right were the narrow beaches of the Spanish coastline, its shrubs and grassland burnt down after a long summer." This clearly shows that the summer has been hot as the plants and grasses have been burnt down.

2. Herds of goats, two ragged young goatherds.

Again, the passage says that they were close enough to shore to make out these two features.

3. They got tired

It says in the passage that the dolphins got "tired of its sport" and "turned aside"

4. This one you obviously have to do yourself, but here's an example of how I would put it.

i. He wanted to go further into Morocco to get an adventure

ii. His job (protecting his sister from a rouge), and earning money for the family in the place of his ill father

5. He was not troubled because he had gone on many fishing expeditions as a boy and was used to these rough sea conditions.

6. He wanted to become a sailor when he was a boy. Lempriere lived on the island of Jersey.

7. I don't see any italics. However, most of the time, authors use italics to highlight important ideas or express the main character's thoughts. For example it would be like: "The sea was <em>very</em> rough" or "<em>That's the last supper we are going to get.</em> She thought."

   1. exhilerating - exciting

   2. egnimatical - difficult to understand

   3. endure - last as in lasting during a difficult time

   4. petered out - faded out, became less as in they slowly stopped talking

ii. This again, you might want to do yourself. But here's how I would put it.

These words helped create and convey more vivid images, helping the reader depict exactly how he felt or what he saw.

I hope this was helpful. Sorry it took so long to type out :)

Read the excerpt from “A Jury of Her Peers” by Susan Glaspell. Which stage of the plot structure does this event represent?
s2008m [1.1K]

The excerpt from "A Jury of Her Peers" by Susan Glaspell narrates an event that represents, concerning the stage of the plot structure, C) Climax.

The <em>climax,</em> in a narrative, is <em>a literary element that expresses the turning point of the story; a moment of tension or drama when the action starts or develops itself.</em> It can be understood from this excerpt that the event narrated represents the climax of the story. <em>"With a rush forward, she threw back the quilt pieces, got the box, tried to put it in her handbag (...) Desperately she opened it, started to take the bird out. But there she broke—she could not touch the bird"</em>. This passage presents a <em>moment of tension</em> in which a <em>problem or unsolved situation</em> appears. The sentence <em>"There was the sound of a knob turning in the inner door"</em> creates even <em>more tension</em> and takes the reader to a moment of <em>interest and excitement</em>. The excerpt ends with the character of Martha hiding a box inside her coat from the county attorney. <em>"Mrs. Hale's hand was against the pocket of her coat"</em>, the author says at the end of the excerpt, <em>maintaining the climax unsolved and the tension unbroken</em>. So, the correct answer would be C) Climax.

The correct answer couldn't be <em>A) Exposition</em> because an exposition is a technique that consists of <em>the presentation of background information within a story.</em> It could be <em>historical context, prior plot events, characters' backstories</em> etc. This excerpt <em>doesn't bring any additional information</em> to the plot, so, the correct answer couldn't be A.

The correct answer couldn't be <em>B) Resolution</em> because the resolution in a narrative is when <em>everything is solved and there is a closure</em>. This excerpt <em>doesn't bring a conclusion or closure</em> to the plot, hence, the correct answer couldn't be B.

The correct answer couldn't be<em> D) Falling action </em>because the falling action occurs <em>right after the climax and leads the plot to its closure</em>. It is when the <em>main problem or tension resolves itself</em>. This excerpt<em> doesn't convey a solution to the problem or tension</em>, on the contrary, <em>the tension maintains itself</em>. Thus, the correct answer couldn't be D.
