Buck did not cry out. He did not check himself, but drove in upon Spitz, shoulder to shoulder, so hard that he missed the throat

. They rolled over and over in the powdery snow. Spitz gained his feet almost as though he had not been overthrown, slashing Buck down the shoulder and leaping clear. Twice his teeth clipped together, like the steel jaws of a trap, as he backed away for better footing, with lean and lifting lips that writhed and snarled. Read this passage. Explain what the conflict shows about Buck and Spitz.

Do you think George reacted reasonably to discovering Myrtle was cheating?
cricket20 [7]

Tom Buchannan is a wealthy business man who comes from a well-to-do family from the MidWest. He is married to Daisy and has a daughter yet seems to care little for them due in large part to the fact that he cheats on his wife with Myrtle, is physically abusive to his wife, and barely shows affection toward his daughter. When Tom learned that Daisy was beginning a relationship with Gatsby, he found out as much information as he could about Gatsby and then called him out on all of the illegal things that he was into right in front of Daisy in order to ruin any possible relationship that Gatsby might have had with her.

George Wilson is a poor man who owns a gas station in the Valley of Ashes. He is described in the novel as being "anemic" looking and "barely alive". He seems to have no personality and does not even realize that his wife is having an affair until he finds a dog collar in her room. When George learns about this affair, he decides they are going to move out west and then when he thinks that she was having an affair with Gatsby (and thinks that Gatsby killed her) he walks all the way to Gatsby's house and shoots him and then kils himself.

These two men are similar in that they suppress their feelings for their wives until something goes wrong. At that point, both men are then willing to fight for their wives and do what is necessary to get them back or get back at someone for hurting her.

After the trumpet was sounded and the flag folded, a member of the honor guard knelt in front of my frail, aging mother, looked
motikmotik

Complete question:

Read the passage from "Veterans Appreciate Our Gratitude, But What They Need Most Is Our Help."

After the trumpet was sounded and the flag folded, a member of the honor guard knelt in front of my frail, aging mother, looked her directly in the eye and in a soft voice, thanked her--and my father--for his service.It was beautiful, and touching, and I was thankful for the recognition of a life well-lived.

Which best identifies the connotative definition of the highlighted word?

The words trumpet, honor, and guard create a tone of ferocity.

The words frail, aging, and soft create a sense of weakness.

The words trumpet, honor, and knelt create a tone of respect.

The words mother, honor, and service create a tone of patriotism.

Answer:

The words trumpet, honor, and knelt create a tone of respect , best identifies the connotative definition of the highlighted word

Explanation:

An approximate 13-17% of homeless people in the U.S. are old people. Regardless of how you measure this number, the Department of Veterans Affairs accepts more than its percentage of 7-9.5% of the adult population as a whole.

The honour guard kneeled down in front of his frigid, old mother, looking straight in the eye and with a soft voice, gratefully, and thanks him-my father-for his service when the trumpet made it sound and the flag blinked.

The trumpet, honor and knotting words build a sense of reverence.
