Answer:

Thoughtful, dramatic, imaginative

Explanation:

According to a different source, this is the excerpt and the options that are included with this question:

<em>He wandered far from the accustomed haunts of boys, and sought desolate places that were in harmony with his spirit. A log raft in the river invited him, and he seated himself on its outer edge and contemplated the dreary vastness of the stream, wishing, the while, that he could only be drowned, all at once and unconsciously, without undergoing the uncomfortable routine devised by nature. Then he thought of his flower. He got it out, rumpled and wilted, and it mightily increased his dismal felicity. He wondered if she would pity him if she knew? Would she cry, and wish that she had a right to put her arms around his neck and comfort him? Or would she turn coldly away like all the hollow world? This picture brought such an agony of pleasurable suffering that he worked it over and over again in his mind and set it up in new and varied lights, till he wore it threadbare. At last he rose up sighing and departed in the darkness.</em>

  • Type A, B, or C for Blank 1.

Assertive

Outraged

Thoughtful

  • Type D, E, or F for Blank 2.

Comfortable

Insensitive

  • Type G, H, or I for Blank 3.

In this excerpt, Tom Sawyer is described as thoughtful, as he dedicates a lot of thought to his situation and his feelings. He is also described as dramatic, as he gets a lot of enjoyment out of the painful image of the flower hugging him. Finally, Tom is portrayed as imaginative due to the creative and elaborate image of the flower that he employs in the excerpt.

PLEASE HELP!! IM STUCK! I will give you 25 points!
diamong [38]

Answer:

A year ago I wrote this same type of essay, I'm going to give you pointers.

Explanation:

1: The deer population on Komodo island is decreasing due to poachers. The effect of the decreasing Deer Population means less food for the Dragons

2: The villagers are currently facing problems with the Komodo dragons both of their livestock being attacked and their own children being attacked as well. In fact a villager commented: "Today is a goat, tomorrow is a child".

3: These problems can be easily fixed. The government can help stop poaching on deers. Secondly, a petition for the villagers to allow feeding the Komodo to stop them from going after their livestock and children has been requested. Lastly, a dragon-proof fence has also been requested by the villagers but has been denied by the Nature Conservancy.

Hope this helped!
