The climax of "The Oasis: Africa" is when the traveling men find the oasis. Which of the following answer choices support this f

act?
For eight weary days we had crawled across the burning desert. In all directions stretched the wastes of the mighty Sahara. Sand, sand, and always sand; hills of sand, valleys of sand, and paths of sand. Sand in the scanty food, sand in the brackish water—water that was drunk lukewarm from a clammy, loathsome water-skin. Sand in one’s mouth, nose, and eyes.

This danger past, we had lost another day making a wide detour to the east in order to avoid the fierce, tameless Tuaregs, who were marauding in the district.

Matchlocks were primed, cartridges rammed home, and swords loosened in their sheaths. Was it the Tuaregs again across our path? But Mohammed, the keen-eyed, shouted joyfully—

“The oasis, the oasis! I see the palm-trees.”

The oasis was set in the sand of the desert like an emerald on a shield of gold. The massive green foliage of the graceful palms was delightfully welcome to eyes smarting and sore with the glare of the eternal sand. How delightful it was to sit in the shade of a moss-grown bank, while at one’s feet a brook ran babbling, picking its way through the cultivated patches!

Read the following paragraphs carefully to see whether or not they create a mood.
RideAnS [48]
At first it began feeling intense, but as Trinius looked at the man on the cross the story felt calm the expression the person felt on the cross the story brought calm and strength. The man had no hate though everyone around him and either anger, sadness, but not the man he had no hate he was calm though in pain. The mood here has many expressions either in the background the character Trinius or the man on the cross.

Hopefully this is good for you :)

I need a diary entry for Old man Warner from the Lottery
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Old Man Warner, the oldest man in town, has participated in seventy-seven lotteries and is a staunch advocate for keeping things exactly the way they are. He dismisses the towns and young people who have stopped having lotteries as “crazy fools,” and he is threatened by the idea of change. He believes, illogically, that the people who want to stop holding lotteries will soon want to live in caves, as though only the lottery keeps society stable. He also holds fast to what seems to be an old wives’ tale—“Lottery in June, corn be heavy soon”—and fears that if the lottery stops, the villagers will be forced to eat “chickweed and acorns.” Again, this idea suggests that stopping the lottery will lead to a return to a much earlier era, when people hunted and gathered for their food. These illogical, irrational fears reveal that Old Man Warner harbors a strong belief in superstition. He easily accepts the way things are because this is how they’ve always been, and he believes any change to the status quo will lead to disaster. This way of thinking shows how dangerous it is to follow tradition blindly, never questioning beliefs that are passed down from one generation to the next.
