I believe the answer is: A. But we had not traveled fifty miles down the stream before we found the water gradually becoming brackish anddiscolored from the saltand alkali in the soil,

In first person Point of view, the narrator the main character in the story and the story is depicted according to the perspective of the main character.

First person point of view writing could be easily identified by the usage of "I" and "We" for single and plural pronouns in the story.

Yes, you are correct. The answer would be letter A. We were quite tired, and there being a large brick house near by, we inquired there... This is because the first person includes the speaker in an excerpt or narration, which is best depicted by the word 'we'.

Many of the Egyptian gods are associated with animals. What are some of these animals? Why do you think these particular animals

Artemon [7]

Well, Horus had a falcon head, Bast was a cat goddess, and Nekhbet is the vulture goddess. The Egyptians believed that these animals had special powers, and the personality of the god or goddess depended on the animal they stood for, like Anubis had a jackal head, and helps with the Underworld (i guess that's what it's called). Hope this helps!

Which statement about F. Scott Fitzgerald’s the great gatsby would the writer Joshua rothman most likely agree with

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

If the question is referring to Rothman's article "The Serious Superficiality of the Great Gatsby", I believe the correct answer is C. The novel is about refusing to see reality no matter the cost.

Explanation:

According to Rothman, the novel's (and the eponymous film's) appeal stems from its flatness, seductiveness, and rejection of reality. Even though the characters are nominally seeking love and meaning, they are "desperate to give in to nearly anything—a drink, a person, a story, a feeling, a song, a crowd, an idea".

Rothman goes on to say: "'Gatsby' captures, with great vividness, the push and pull of illusion and self-delusion; the danger and thrill of forgetting, lying, and fantasizing; the hazards and the indispensability of dreaming and idealization." The underlying reality of the novel and the so-called "roaring twenties" that serve as its backdrop is grim. It's a world of deep class struggles, poverty, social climbers such as Gatsby who earned millions illegally. However, the characters in "Gatsby" are eager to sweep these unpleasant issues under the rug and cover them with parties, riches, gossip, and other superficial ways to kill time.

The story of romeo and juliet is a famous love story everybody knows that romeo loved juliet but lesser known romeo loved rosaline first even tho he had never expressed so directly. his love for her was born from the basic human instinct to want what we cant have, think of it like the nerd in love with the head cheerleader but she doesnt know he exists.
