andrew-mc [135]

Answer:read the excerpt and answer the question below. I cannot but take notice of the wonderful mercy of God to me in those afflictions, in sending me a Bible. One of the Indians that came from Medfield fight, had brought some plunder, came to me, and asked me, if I would have a Bible, he had got one in his basket. I was glad of it, and asked him, whether he thought the Indians would let me read? He answered, yes. So I took the Bible, and in that melancholy time, it came into my mind to read first the 28th chapter of Deuteronomy, which I did, and when I had read it, my dark heart wrought on this manner: that there was no mercy for me, that the blessings were gone, and the curses come in their room, and that I had lost my opportunity. But the Lord helped me still to go on reading till I came to Chap. 30, the seven first verses, where I found, there was mercy promised again, if we would return to Him by repentance; and though we were scattered from one end of the earth to the other, yet the Lord would gather us together, and turn all those curses upon our enemies. I do not desire to live to forget this Scripture, and what comfort it was to me. Which element of Puritan literature is evident in the excerpt? Select all that apply.

Read the excerpt from The Odyssey. My home is on the peaked sea-mark of Ithaca under Mount Neion's wind-blown robe of leaves, in

Veseljchak [2.6K]

This question is missing the options. I've found them online. They are the following:

What key detail should be added to strengthen the student’s paraphrasing of this excerpt?

A) Dulichium, Same, and Zacynthus are all visible to Ithaca.

B) Odysseus holds his home very close to his heart.

C) The islands surrounding Ithaca lie to the east and the south.

D) Ithaca lies under Mount Neion and to the northwest.

Answer:

The detail that should be added to strengthen the paraphrasing is:

B) Odysseus holds his home very close to his heart.

Explanation:

A paraphrase consists of rewording something that was said by someone else. That is, we say the exact same thing but with different words. Thus, to strengthen the student's paraphrase in this case, we must look for the idea that is missing.

In the original excerpt, Odysseus talks of Ithaca's geographic location, the fact that it is a good place "for a boy's training", and the fact that the island is a place he loves:

I shall not see on earth a place more dear.

However, the student's paraphrase has left out this last idea. To make it more complete, we should add that Odysseus holds his home very close to his heart.

Determine the class of the italicized pronoun. I respect myself too much to seek revenge. personal relative interrogative demons

gregori [183]

Answer:

The correct answer is reflexive.

Explanation:

There are actually two pronouns in the sentence (you didn't italicize either one, unfortunately): I and myself. I is a personal pronoun, like you, he/she/it, we, you, and they.

On the other hand, the pronoun myself is reflexive. This means that the object of the sentence is the same as the subject. In the sentence above, the subject I is performing the action respect on the object myself who is the same person as the object.

Relative pronouns connect sentences: who, which, whom, etc. Interrogative pronouns are used in questions: which, who, etc. (but not to connect clauses). Demonstrative pronouns point to something: that, this, those, etc. For indefinite pronouns, we don't know who or what we're talking about: somebody, whoever, whichever, etc. Intensive pronouns looks the same as reflexive, however, they are only used for emphasis and can be omitted from the sentence without it losing its meaning.
