Answer: He began in Philadelphia as Justice of Peace, Postmaster and Clerk of the General Assembly.
Explanation:
- In the answer that I gave I did not include ''on the local level'' because it would be too much for condensed phrase sentence since it is mentioning Philadelphia as the location. Also, there is no need to write location Philadelphia many times, one time is good and then if you write what the location is referring to it will be understandable( as I wrote you in the answer).
When it comes to condensed phrase, we must notice that those phrases are more understandable and they are clearly representing the thought that the speaker wanted to say and show to us.
The correct answer is - The story begins in the thick of the action.
This method is called <em>in medias res - </em>it means that the reader is immediately thrown into the action, no long introductions necessary. We are immediately told what's going on - that the Danes have a problem with the monster Grendel, and that they need Beowulf's help.
There is no lengthy introduction - we are just told that Beowulf is a great hero who can help Denmark. There is no invocation to the muse either, which is a common convention of epic poetry.
Answer:
The nature of God
Explanation:
In these lines, St. Augustine criticizes a view that was common during his time. This is the view that argues that curiosity is a sin, and that God should not be questioned or understood. In these lines, he asks what God was doing before Creation. However, he argues that those who condemn the question (by implying that those who pry into this mystery go to Hell) is expressing a view he disagrees with. Moreover, this implies that St. Augustine does not believe God would view this question as a sin either. Therefore, he does not think this attitude reflects the nature of God.
In the excerpt about Mars, the sentence that would be the best choice for Talia to add to the "<u>What I learned</u>" column is:
Sentence 6: "Scientists believed that the face was just one of the mesas."
Talia is reading an excerpt in order to complete a table. The column she must complete now is the "<u>What I learned</u>" column.
Thus, Talia must complete the column with the main idea she grasped after reading the excerpt.
The excerpt is about a picture taken of Mars where a strange, long face appears. The purpose of the excerpt is to explain that the face was not really a face: it was a mesa, which is a typical geographical feature in Mars.
Therefore, among the sentences in the excerpt, the one that best fits the column is sentence 6: "Scientist believed that the face was just one of the mesas."
The complete question with the excerpt can be found attached.
