Answer:

not the prompt but here you go

Explanation:

It all started with a magnifying glass. Daryl's uncle had given it to him for his birthday. It didn't seem like much of a gift at the time, but then all sorts of things happened. Read this story to find out what kind of an adventure Daryl had!

A Summer's Day

It was a nice summer day and Daryl decided to go for a walk. 'Why don't you take that magnifying glass with you,' said his uncle, 'see what kind of an adventure you can find.' Daryl didn't think there was much adventure in a magnifying glass, but he stuck it in his pocket anyway along with some peanut butter crackers.

He walked to his favorite tree and sat down in the warm sand to eat his crackers. As he ate, some crumbs fell to the ground. He took out the magnifying glass when he noticed an ant had already found his cracker crumbs. 'Hey,' he thought, 'I'll check this out.'

The Adventure Begins

Under the magnifying glass, the ant looked pretty formidable. That means it looked large and scary! As he followed the ant, he saw it fall into a small pit. The ant tried and tried to crawl out of the pit, but the sand kept giving way and he'd fall back down. Daryl was just about to give up on the ant when, all of a sudden, out of the bottom of the pit jumped an antlion and grabbed the ant! Wow, was that something to watch up-close! The antlion was even more formidable than the ant!

Antlion

As he continued to gaze through the glass, he noticed a little trail of tracks. They almost looked like tractor tracks, but he knew that wasn't possible. He decided to follow them and see where they went. The tracks led him right to a tree where he found a caterpillar happily munching on a leaf. Wow, did the caterpillar look cool under the magnifying glass! It had colors and spots and hairs and lots of funny little feet. It was rather peculiar, meaning strange and different.

A Little Danger

He continued to watch the caterpillar when he was interrupted by a buzzing sound. There hovering over the caterpillar was a wasp. Though is startled him, he was rather intrigued, or very interested, with this tiny adventure he was on. The wasp was the most formidable of all!

Carefully watching the wasp, he saw it was laying small white eggs right on top of the caterpillar, who didn't seem to notice anything going on at all! What a crazy world down here in small land! The wasp suddenly flew up and away. As he watched, he saw it get tangled in a spider web. 'This is awesome,' he thought, 'I have to climb up and take a better look at that spider.'

Answer:

"They heard!–they suspected!– they knew!– they were making a mockery of my horror!– this I thought, and this I think.

Explanation:

"The Tell-Tale Heart" is a short story written by Edgar Allen Poe. The story is about an unnamed narrator who has murdered an old man and is trying to hide his crime from the police.

The line from the text, that tells that the narrator is convinced that the police has heard his heartbeat is,

<em>"They heard!–they suspected!– they knew!– they were making a mockery of my horror!– this I thought, and this I think."</em>

In this line, the narrator is thinking that the police has suspected him and heard his heartbeat which is beating louder as he has comitted a crime.

Read this extract and select all the complex sentences:
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

  • We had been on the road for six hours, but it felt like sixty given the appalling surface.
  • I was now worried that we wouldn’t arrive before nightfall, and my fears weren’t helped by the driver’s eccentric behaviour.

Explanation:

The phrases above are two examples of complex phrases that can be found in the text.

A complex sentence is one that is formed by an independent clause and one or two dependent clauses. As you may already know, dependent clauses are those that cannot convey a complete thought on their own and therefore need a complement to make sense, unlike the independent clauses that can conclude a thought and convey a complete meaning without the need for complement.
