Answer:

Over the mantelpiece

Explanation:

A prepositional phrase is a modifying phrase which includes a preposition (in this case, "over") and the object of the preposition (in this case, "the mantelpiece.")

Prepositions are words like "in, on, over, at, beside," etc, which then precede a noun.  They are in "pre-position" in front of a noun, you might say (thus the term "preposition.")   Long ago, the English language used to use inflected nouns (as a number of other languages do) to indicate things that we now accomplish through the use of prepositions.  The time of transition between Old English (up to about AD 1150) and Middle English (from 12th to 15th centuries) is when prepositions became common in English usage.

How does the description of the 1900s in paragraphs 5-6 help us understand the qualities of dystopian literature?please help it’
dmitriy555 [2]

Dystopian literature is often used to write about wars, politics, and social structures. Dystopia is a place where everything goes terribly wrong, and used in literature it is a genre of fictional writing used to expose a bad scenario and talk about poverty or oppression.

In this description of the 1900s the writer uses dystopian literature first <em>by exposing the possibility of a perfect world</em>, with no poverty, no wars, social equality and technological advances, <em>leading the reader to feel hope only to crash that hope in the final sentences</em> in which the writer explains how none of this happened and how it only resulted on times of violence, poverty, war and discrimination.

Answer and Explanation:

This happened at the moment when Soda treated Ponnyboy with contempt and looked at him as if he were an unworthy person who should be sent away quickly. This shows that just when they met Soda did not trust Ponnyboy and therefore wanted him far, so that he would not disturb anyone.

That question is about the book "The Outsiders" that shows the lives of boys involved in violent street gang disputes, as they struggle to survive in a twisted and dangerous environment for them.
