Which excerpt from Chapter 3 of The Scarlet Letter is the best evidence that the stranger in the marketplace wants to keep his t
olasank [31]

Answer:

When he found the eyes of Hester Prynne fastened on his own, and saw that she appeared to recognize him, he slowly and calmly raised his finger, made a gesture with it in the air, and laid it on his lips.

Explanation:

Nathaniel Hawthorne's <em>The Scarlet Letter </em>tells the story of a woman who was accused of adultery and punished for the sin in a Puritan society. The woman, Hester Prynne had to wear a scarlet letter A to indicate or 'show' everyone about the sin she had committed, and be 'showcased' in public for 3 hours every day.

The given excerpt from Chapter 3 gave details about the marketplace where Hester Prynne and her daughter were revealed and 'displayed' for everyone to see. The womenfolk took the chance to berate and gossip about her. And among the general public who had come to see Prynne was a man who Prynne seemed to recognize. But <u>he held his hands to his lips so that she will not reveal him or his secret. This gesture seems to suggest that the man wanted to keep his true identity a secret. </u>

5. Ms. Yeziersky became a schoolteacher.

In all examples, we have an equation:

subject = noun phrase (what?)

               adjective (how?)

               adverbial (when? where? how? etc.)

To define if a subject complement is a noun phrase or an adjective, we always think of the main word:

like a nice man (noun phrase because everything modifies the noun MAN)

uncommonly thrifty (<em>uncommonly</em> modifies <em>thrifty</em> so it is an adjective).
