Making personal connections lets you understand the piece your reading in a more personal and close way, meaning you understand it at a higher thinking level. Making personal connections allows you to feel the way that the character feels, meaning you can answer any questions about said protagonist more easily.

We humans have wondered for many centuries about what exists in the universe that surrounds us. Which kind of pronoun case is th
slavikrds [6]
Not sure which word is bolded, but I can still help you out. There are two pronouns in this sentence: we and us. 
If we is bolded, the answer is C. nominative case. These pronouns are often the subject of a sentence. 
If us is bolded, the answer is A. objective case. The object of a sentence receives the verbs attention. In this sentence, you ask "What is surrounded?" to understand that us is objective case.
Just so you know, possessive case is when the pronoun owns something. For we, the possessive pronoun is our. We went home to our house.

Give a Summary that talks about the architecture in the story, "House Taken Over" by Julio Cortázar!
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

The house, a very large mansion the pair inherited from their grandparents, is a large building divided in two living segments. At the entrance one enters a vestibule leading to the atrium, which consists of a living room, two bedrooms on either sides and, separated by a corridor, the kitchen and a bathroom. The second half of the house, entered through a massive oak door, contains the brother’s library, three other bedrooms and a dining room. Due to the disproportions between the surface of the residence and the daily needs of the two inhabitants, the second segment is entered only for cleaning purposes or for the occasional retrieving of a book from the library.

The monotony of domestic life ends abruptly when the brother hears distinct -yet dissimilar- sounds coming from the second section of the large house. Promptly closing the door, in order to keep whatever is there from coming through, the brother tells his sister that “They’ve taken over the back part.” Although saddened by the loss of part of their belongings, the circustamce appears to the two rather unremarkable, (“happened so simply and without fuss”), like being something they were already waiting, from entities they knew would have come.

Hope this helps

“Modern readers will benefit from reading novels such as Rudyard Kipling’s Kim.” Write a short argument either for or against th
Aliun [14]

If you agree with the claim, you might include some of the following points in your answer:

<span><span>One major purpose of reading literature and literary fiction is to expand one's horizons. A novel such as Kim encourages readers to construct a mental picture or an understanding of a different culture.
</span><span>While many details may be challenging to understand, readers can always refine their reading of the novel with research about the setting. In the process, they are likely to come away with useful facts or insights.
</span><span>The novel has a timeless appeal as a coming-of-age story and as a tale of adventure and intrigue.
</span><span>The novel explores issues of identity in a setting where people of different races mix together. These issues are relevant in today's world.
</span><span>Novels such as Kim allow readers an opportunity to examine alternative viewpoints on topics of social and historic importance (such as life in a colonized country and the relationship between the rulers and the natives) and compare their viewpoints and attitudes to those of a writer from a different period.</span></span>

If you disagree with the claim, you might include some of the following points in your answer:

<span><span>For readers who seek literature that offers insight into their life experience, a novel set in India at the turn of the century lacks relevance.
</span><span>The enjoyment of reading a novel such as Kim may be significantly diminished because most readers cannot relate to a protagonist with a social identity very different from their own.
</span><span>Contextual details and topical references in such a novel are likely to be lost on modern readers. They are unlikely to follow plot details that rely on the context. They may also miss important nuances in the writing because of the unfamiliar setting.
</span><span>Kim is written from the viewpoint of an author who accepted colonization. To modern readers, the writing seems to lack sensitivity to the concerns of people living in a colonized country.</span></span>
