Answer:
Aunt Harriet did not kill herself or the baby, though it does seem like it at first. If you read the pages carefully, Joseph Strorm kills her actually. In the pages after Harriet leaves, David's mom says she will pray for gods forgiveness for Harriet, but J.strorm talks about the heresies of women, how they can get away with it but he says how aunt Harriet won't get away with it this time. The page after, David says how they found aunt Harriet's body in a river, his dad mentioned her in his prayers but never again. This implies murder.
Since no one has created a machine capable of traveling through time that we know of, I can only draw inferences of what a time machine of this nature would function like from my imagination, and my knowledge of sci-fi films and novels. I imagine that the machine would hover above the surface of the ground, and shutter excessively for a little while, and then, somehow, channeling more energy than you could possibly fathom, it would disappear instantaneously with a blinding flash of light. It glides effortlessly though the distorted dimension of time, hurtling you through a series of intricate passageways that projected images depicting the universe throughout the course of time. It pulses a strange, multicolored energy from its exhaust pipe that evaporates into the “atmosphere” as the bulky piece of machinery continues to catapult you through the vortex of time. The control panel is equipped with an advanced artificial intelligence program, that voices the warning, “50 years until you’ve reached your desired time period” and you gaze the phantasmagorical world of time as it desintegrates before your eyes. Finally, you’ve arrived.
I would say true
Tone is a way the author or speaker shows their attitude towards the audience/reader. Right?
Well they also have to use diction and punctuation to get proper tone, so yeah I guess it's true.
Answer:
The option which best explains how the historical passage might enhance a reader's understanding of the personal narrative is:
B. The historical passage connects the personal experience of planting and harvesting corn with technical information about farming.
Explanation:
We can easily eliminate option A because the passage does not show evidence of why the Wampanoag were once hunter-gatherers. Quite the opposite, instead of gathering they are farming in the passage.
Letter C claims that the story told by the grandfather is more factual. Looking this passage up online, I found the previous lines. The grandfather is actually telling a sort of fantastic story involving Mother Earth and the prairie rabbit. We can also eliminate this option.
Letter D claims that the passage is about modern technology and how it changed the Wampanoag's relationship with their harvest. However, the passage does not mention technology at all.
The best option then seems to be letter B. While the grandfather is talking about his experience with planting and farming, the narrator is describing it in more technical details: the types of crops that were sowed together and why.
