Read the excerpt from part 5 of Zeitoun. Zeitoun thinks of the simple greatness of the canoe, of the advantages of moving quietl

y, of listening carefully. When he was released from prison, he and Kathy looked for the canoe where he'd last seen it, at the Claiborne house, but it was gone. The house had been robbed, too. Everything was stolen, because the soldiers and police who arrested Zeitoun had left the house unlocked and unguarded. Thieves walked in unimpeded and made off with all the tenants' belongings, everything Todd had gathered there in the front rooms to keep dry. All those things were replaced, but he misses the canoe. He keeps his eye out for it, hoping he'll see it at a yard sale or in someone's sideyard. He'd pay for it again. Maybe he should get a new one, he thinks. Maybe his girls will like it more now. Maybe little Ahmad, like his uncle and father and grandfather and countless Zeitouns before them, will feel the lure of the sea. Which statement best describes how time progresses in this excerpt? Time progresses chronologically with the events occurring in the order they happened. Time continually jumps around, switching between past and present. Time progresses chronologically with one flashback and a return to the original time. Time speeds up to show the present and slows down to show the past.

Answer: Time progresses chronologically with one flashback and a return to the original time.

Explanation:

In the first part, Zeitoun is thinking of the canoe (present time), this leads to a memory of the time the canoe was stolen from the Claiborne house, he and Kathy noticed it when he was released from prison (flashback), then he thinks on how all the stolen things were replaced except for the canoe and he misses it (return to the present), finally he keeps thinking about if he should get a new canoe and if his family would like it (still present).

Kipish [7]

Answer:

In this poem, the poet has praised God's intelligence and nature's beauty He says that the aroma of Murree is so sweet that it seems someone has sprayed perfume. The valleys are also beautiful and the smaller streams are meeting bigger ones. Murree is pleasantly different from the rest of Punjab as Murree is wetter and has loads of greenery. The superb coloured butterflies add to the beauty of the plants which are already so beautiful. At noon the mist evaporates into the shiny skies and the rushing streams foretell the arrival of the summer monsoon. This beauty of the Murree Hills depicts the Greatness and Intelligence of God Almighty and prove His existence. The basic theme of the poem in the Murree hills is the beauty of nature which is the creation of God, so ultimately by praising the beauty around you, you praise God's high skills for such a creation

Choose the predicate nominative in the following sentence.
Georgia [21]

Answer:

c. London Underground

Explanation:

A "predicate nominative" refers to a noun/pronoun that is used to rename the subject of the sentence. It is always found <em>after the linking verb. </em>Remember that it is part of the "predicate" in the sentence.

The predicate in the sentence above is:<em> "was the London Underground." </em>Therefore, the predicate nominative should be found here. As mentioned above, the predicate nominative should follow after a linking verb. The linking verb above is<em> "was."</em> The only noun following it is the<em> "London Underground."</em> It is also used to rename or identify the subject in the sentence, which is the "first subway system in the world." This makes choice c as the answer.
