On April 18, at about 6:30 a.m. local time, an avalanche swept down off the west shoulder of Everest and killed 16 climbers. To anybody who’s familiar with Everest climbing, it should come as no surprise that all of the men were Sherpa porters. Sherpas are Everest's workforce—the literal backbone of the climbing industry there. The men who were struck were either carrying 80-pound loads to Camps I and II, or they were on their way back to Base Camp. Without the hard work of the Sherpa porters, it would be largely impossible for Americans and Europeans with slightly above-average physiology, and well above-average disposable income, to scale the world’s tallest mountain

Does the bold word introduce a "dialogue quote" or a "flow quote"?
Softa [21]

Answer:

- Flow quote.

Explanation:

The bold words "others want to read, not listen to a concert!" introduces a 'flow quote' as it moves in continuity without any abruption. It could not be characterized as a 'dialogue quote' as it does not quote a conversation between two people which happens in dialogue quotes. <em>Flow quotes are employed to emphasize certain words or ideas using quotation marks without breaking the flow or continuity of ideas.</em> Thus, the given quotation would exemplify a '<u>flow quote'.</u>

Help !!
Bumek [7]
Dear Sir,
     I recently went on one of your cruises to the Pacific Island. I'm sorry to say this, but I was very disappointed with the food. I ordered a steak for dinner last night, and it was cold. Other than that, it had a hair in it! I quickly ordered some chicken soup, but the chicken tasted raw. 
       Also, the cabin I stayed in was extremely tiny! I had to walk sideways to get to my bed, practically! It was cramped with useless items. After I saw how small it was, I asked to change my room. They refused!
      Lastly, there was no bathroom in the cabin. I had to walk all the way down the hall to go to the restroom at 6:00 in the morning. It was terrible, to say the least.
     I hope you will take my complaints into consideration. I just hope you will upgrade your ship into something nicer. 
                                    Sincerely,
                                 (put your name here)

B. tells readers that the ship was moving with great speed.

C. implies that the icebergs were not easily visible and posed a great threat to the ship.

D. indicates that the crew could have avoided the icebergs.

Answer:

C. implies that the icebergs were not easily visible and posed a great threat to the ship.

Explanation:

The word "lurked" refers to the word "lurk" which refers to something that is hidden and that makes it difficult to visualize in order to surprise and catch a person unawares and who was not paying enough attention, or who could not see what was hidden, hidden. Therefore, the use of the word "lurked" in the phrase above, means that icebergs were not easily visible and represented a major threat to the ship.

Question 4 of 20
bekas [8.4K]
I believe the answer is B:
B = Comic Book

Reason:
Film is that actual word that can be used to be a medium of a story. Film also referencing to movie, motion picture, or moving picture, is a visual art-form used to stimulate experiences that communicate ideas, stories, perceptions, feelings, beauty, or atmosphere through the use of moving images.
So Comic Book would coordinate with that.
