1. What is "the monkey's paw”? What is Herbert's attitude towards the paw? Sitte text evidence from the selection to support you
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

1.) The monkey’s paw is an actual monkey’s paw but on this one, a holy person, known as a fakir, put a spell on it so that 3 people can have 3 wishes and see that fate cannot be changed. In paragraph 26 it states, “He wanted to show that fate ruled people’s lives, and that those who interfered with it did so to their sorrow.” Herbert White thinks the monkey’s paw as a joke. In paragraph 52 Herbert reacts with “pretended horror” and says "Likely. Why, we're going to be rich, and famous and happy. Wish to be an emperor, father, to begin with; then you can't be henpecked." He is saying this to lighten up the mood. In another paragraph Herbert thinks that the monkey’s paw might be of use. In fact, when Mr. White says that he needs nothing, Herbert encourages his father to wish for 200 pounds. In the text it states, “Well, wish for 2 hundred pounds.”  Then he sits down at the piano to strike "a few impressive chords." In conclusion, Herbert’s dialogue expressed his feelings which shows readers what he thinks about the monkey’s paw.

PLZZ HELPP!!!<br><br> QUESTION &amp; STORY IS BELOW!
sergejj [24]

Answer:

1)

I believe the most difficult part of Stacy's experiences with her grandmother would be the first time Stacy showed her grandmother her shoe. There was a lot of tension between her grandmother and Stacy at that period. For instance: "They'll ruin your feet." She lunged toward me and tried to snatch them away. Angry and bewildered, I retreated a few steps and showed her the shoe." and "When she looked back at the satin ribbons, it was with a hate and disgust that I had never seen before. "Give those to me." She held out her hand. I clutched the ribbons tightly against my stomach. "Why?" " At this point, there is much confusion and anger between Stacy and her grandmother. After this excitement in the story, Stacy became very distant from her mother, and there was much tension. For example      "The next morning, I decided that if Grandmother was going to be mean to me, then I would be mean to her. I began to ignore her. When she entered a room I was in, I would deliberately turn around and leave. For the rest of the day, things got more and more tense."

2)

From 'understanding self and others', and 'the power of love', and 'solving life's mysteries', I could conclude that the best theme to fit those words would be that with love and humility you must go out and do what you love best, understanding what others might feel and how you would, to fulfill your purpose and discover great treasures in life. For example,  "I covered her hands with mine. "I just wanted to show you what I love best- dancing." "And I love my children," she said. I could hear the ache in her voice. "And my grandchildren. I don't want anything bad to happen to you."  and "and then I began crying, too. "So much to learn," she said and began hugging me back. "So much to learn." These two sentences show us that you must understand what others might feel and how you would, to fulfill your purpose and discover great treasures in life.

3)

Conflicts between people can be resolved by communicating with each other and explaining their differences.  (IDEA-you can write the explanation)

Note:

I'm so sorry, but this is all I can help you with, I really have to go. Please know that this is completely original(no plagarisium), but you might want to change it up a bit before you hand it off.

Identify the adjectives in the following sentence.  
wolverine [178]

The correct option is B: new, overwhelming.

Adjectives are usually used to modify nouns. In this case, in the sentence "[although] the new students worked​ hard, they could barely keep up with the overwhelming amount of homework", "new" modifies "students" and "overwhelming" modifies "amount of homework".  

The other options contain "barely" which is an adverb, not an adjective. Moreover, "hard" is also used as an adverb in the sentence. Adverbs such as "barely" modify a verb. That is to say, they add information about HOW an action is.
