Explanation:

A simple sentence is one that has a single independent clause (which is one that can convey a complete thought, without needing a complement). In this case, this sentence has only one subject and one predicate.

Compound sentences, on the other hand, have more than one independent clause, more than one subject and more than one predicate.

Verbs, in turn, are the words that indicate that some action is taking place.

A) Mary Chesnut is starting to write her diary on November 8, 1860 when she found of that Abraham Lincoln is elected for the president of United States. She was on the train and that was the moment when she decided that she will write about everything that is happening around her. Those events were Abraham Lincoln election, the South’s secession from the Union, Civil War.

B) The diary is giving us reveal of the daily life back then including finances, race, struggles, and sacrifices. She was fighting trough the diary to come to terms with the things that was very important back them and all of them were wanting it. That thing was freedom. She met many people during her lifetime, those were famous people, people who survived the war and people who are having many secrets.

C) For me, the most surprising thing is that she recorded her impressions during the five years. Also, I found surprising that she wanted to describe and represent all secrets and events that she found out from other people and I think that that is really brave.

Reflect on your reading of Guy de Maupassant's "An Uncomfortable Bed" by answering the following questions about the mood and to

yarga [219]

Answer:

The author, Guy de Maupassant, uses a humorous mood and tone throughout the story "An Uncomfortable Bed". The narrator’s paranoia (an irrational and persistent feeling that people are 'out to get you') after reaching his friend’s place makes the situation very humorous.

Explanation:

"An Uncomfortable Bed" is a humorous short story. Although the readers can feel the humorous tone from the very beginning narrator himself remains very serious throughout the story. This fact makes the story and narrator’s situation even funnier. The narrator’s soliloquy, “Look out, old ferret! They have something in preparation for you" starts a series of events which only lead to laughter.

His warm reception by his friends at their place, his eating style at dinner, then making adjustments in the sleeping room are all depicted in comical manner, while the narrator himself remains unaware of the funny side of his actions (just like Mr. Bean).

At the end of the story author creates suspense. The narrator tells us that when he had been in deep sleep (in the middle of the room on the floor) for some long time, he felt some heavy object on him. There was also some burning liquid all over his face, neck and chest. The narrator with great difficulty could success in knowing that that heavy object had a face, a nose, and whiskers. In the second last paragraph of he story this suspense is resolved as that heavy object was a valet who had brought tea and breakfast for him, but stumbled on the narrator’s bed in the middle of the room .
