English

Answer with Explanation:

The question is related to "The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World," a short story written by <em>Gabriel Marquez. </em>The story centers on<u> the dead body that the villagers found on the shore.</u> Everyone treated him with kindness because he looked very handsome for the villagers. He was then called "Esteban." <u>Even the men fell in love with him. </u>

The nature of the villagers transformation was given a hint in the story's subtitle "A Tale for Children" through the action of the people towards Esteban. Just like kids, the villagers were attracted to Esteban's handsomeness. This symbolized their respect for him. When they finally dumped his body, they vow that in memory of Esteban, they will transform the village into a place that was worthy for Esteban. They believe that someday Esteban will float back to them. This shows the villagers' innocence, just like a child.

Andru [333]

Answer:

The answer is Character vs. Society or it might be character vs character. I am pretty sure it is character vs society though.

Explanation:

In this story excerpt they are told to go into hiding and are told that they can no longer do certain things. That is because of the state of the world that the text was in. It is not character vs. character because two characters are not arguing or having any conflict and it is not character vs self because the character is not having an internal conflict about their confidence or mental health or whatever.

Jen wrapped a gift that was 6 in wide and 10 in tall volume of box 120 in3 what was length of box
Anettt [7]
This is better suited to the Mathematics section. The formula for this is V(olume) = L(ength) x H(eight) x W(idth). V = 120 in^3. W = 6 in. H = 10 in. W x H = 60 in. 120 divided by 60 = 2. The length of the box is 2 inches. This can be proven through substitution:
120 = 6 x 10 x 2.
120 = 60 x 2.
120 = 120.
