I'm not 100% sure but I'd go with "Your ensemble for the costume party was so well designed that I did not recognize you."

The correct answer is B. Your ensemble for the costume party was so well designed that I did not recognize you.

Explanation:

In communication, the tone of the speaker refers to the attitude the speaker has which is determined by the election of words, point of view and use of language. In the case of formal tone, it differs from the informal tone and other types of tones because the speaker chooses sophisticated and formal words, longer and complex sentences and avoids informality such as direct judgments, use of slangs, word contractions or rude words. Additionally, this tone is used in certain contexts such as job or academy and it shows the speaker is educated and serious. Considering this, the statement with the most formal tone is "Your ensemble for the costume party was so well designed that I did not recognize you" because this statement is the one in which sophisticated language is used, for example instead of saying "custom" the speaker uses the expression "ensemble for the costume party". Also, in this statement, the sentences are longer and complex and the speaker avoids contraction, rude words and any other informality.

Why is the sentence “so there was nothing to fear from them” (lines 73-74) ironic? What does it foreshadow?
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The line is ironic for even after the family of Don Lupe had gone, either dead or the children taken away to far away lands, he still had to live a life in hiding, "like a leper", scared of any new stranger in town.

It foreshadows the event that will be upon him, being hunted and eventually tortured and killed by the son of the very man he had killed.

Explanation:

The short story "Tell Them Not To Kill Me" by Juan Rulfo is a story about an accused man on death penalty. The accused Juvencio Nava had murdered his neighbor Don Lupe over a mere trifling issue of their cattle grazing in the other person's land. And for this crime, he had been guarding himself from being detected, which after the death of the victim's wife and the young children taken to far away place to their relatives, he had thought himself safe from any retribution.

The line <em>"so there was nothing to fear from them"</em> is said by Juvencio while recounting the past years he had lived during the murder. He stated that with the death of Lupe's wife due to grief, and the children being taken to stay with relatives in a far away places, he has nothing to worry about anymore. He could easily live his life without the fear of being hunted.

But this speech is ironic for it actually happened in the opposite way. He had to live in hiding for many years, and would flee to the mountains whenever someone new came into town.

The line also foreshadows the future events where he will be captured and killed by the son of the murdered man. The colonel who had him captured has come to pass judgement on him. As it turns out, he was the son of Don Lupe, and had wanted to exact revenge on his father's killer. In the end, Guadalupe Terreros' son had avenge his father's murder.

Angie hit the back of her head and now she has difficulty walking. her doctor found that her spinal cord is intact but her _____
Alenkinab [10]

The answer: Brain


In Angie's situation, she has her spinal cord intact but still has difficulty walking. Medically, balance, gait and walking require complete functions of the brain and spinal cord. Should her spinal cord and its nerves be intact, the problem lies with the other important factor which is the brain. The brain sends the signals to do any activity.

Is summarizing is a useful alternative to quoting?
lyudmila [28]
There are some differences betwee summarizing and quoting. Summarizing: doesn't match the source word for word, presents a broad overview, so is usually much shorter than the original text, involves putting the main idea/ideas into your own words, but including only the  main point, must be attributed to the original source. Quoting: match the source word for word, must be attributed to the original source, appear between quotation marks, are usually a brief segment of the text. So, as for me, summarizing is not really useful alternative to quoting.
