Winter Dreams by F. Scott Fitzgerald (excerpt) "Isn't she—a pretty girl, any more?" "Oh, she's all right." "Look here," said Dex

ter, sitting down suddenly, "I don't understand. You say she was a 'pretty girl' and now you say she's 'all right.' I don't understand what you mean—Judy Jones wasn't a pretty girl, at all. She was a great beauty. Why, I knew her, I knew her. She was—" Devlin laughed pleasantly. "I'm not trying to start a row," he said. "I think Judy's a nice girl and I like her. I can't understand how a man like Lud Simms could fall madly in love with her, but he did." Then he added: "Most of the women like her." Dexter looked closely at Devlin, thinking wildly that there must be a reason for this, some insensitivity in the man or some private malice. "Lots of women fade just like that," Devlin snapped his fingers. "You must have seen it happen. Perhaps I've forgotten how pretty she was at her wedding. I've seen her so much since then, you see. She has nice eyes." A sort of dulness settled down upon Dexter. For the first time in his life he felt like getting very drunk. What does the emphasis on the word pretty and Dexter’s reaction to the news of Judy’s situation tell readers about his attachment to her? A. Dexter no longer loves Judy but still feels tenderness and pity toward her. B. Dexter feels anger about Judy’s situation and wants to avenge her mistreatment. C. Dexter was deeply in love with Judy and wanted to rescue her from her bad marriage. D. Dexter was more attached to the dream of possessing Judy and did not actually love her.

How was the Vikings life style ?
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Daily life for most men and women during the Viking Age revolved around subsistence-level farmwork. Almost everyone lived on rural farmsteads that produced most of the goods used by the people who lived there.

The work on a farmstead was divided by gender/sex. Women were customarily charged with the tasks that were performed “within the threshold” of the house, while men were charged with those tasks that lay outside of the house.

The two main tasks of women were producing clothing and preparing food. Women baked, cooked, made alcoholic drinks, and made dairy products such as milk, butter, and cheese. Milking sheep and cows were tasks that fell to women as part of this process, even though those activities were often performed outside of “the threshold.” In winter, the animals were in the homesteads’ longhouses, and so would have been inside a threshold, but in summer the animals were out grazing and were watched over by shepherds who could be either male or female.

Agricultural work, as opposed to food preparation, fell to men. This involved fertilizing, plowing, sowing, harvesting, and threshing. During the harvest, however, all members of the household would typically join in the work, since it was so laborious that all available hands were needed, be they male or female.

Ann [662]
Carl Vinson was very supportive of the US Navy. The first option choice is false, other branches of the US military never lost their funding because of the US Navy. The second choice is kind of true because better ships were built that required fewer people but that wasn't really the major impact. The third answer choice is partially true because Carl Vinson did double the size of the US Navy but other countries still were a threat to the US so this point is false. The last answer choice is true because Carl Vinson's work in naval expansion helped defend Pearl Harbor when it was attacked. The major impact was the last choice. Therefore, the answer is the last choice.
