"I served them well / with my noble blade, as was only fitting / Small pleasure they had in such a sword-feast / dark things in
iVinArrow [24]

The pharse "sword-feast" is a kenning. Option C is correct.

A kenning is a type of circumlocution, in the form of a compound that utilizes figurative language instead of a more concrete single-word noun.

Kenning generally consists  of two words, and are often hyphenated.

In other words, a kenning is a concise compound or figurative phrase which replaces a common noun.

Explain how the organizational structure of “The Last Lecture” supports Pausch’s purpose for delivering the lecture. WILL GIVE B
Goryan [66]

The novel opens with Randy Pausch attempting to explain why he even agreed to give a "last lecture" in the first place. His beloved wife Jai, whom he has always regarded as his biggest "cheerleader," was initially opposed. Why, with so little time left, would he decide to devote so much of it to an academic pursuit rather than to his beloved wife and children?

Pausch explains that it was not despite his children, but rather forthem that he has agreed to give to this lecture. He is dying. His eldest child Dylan is only five years old. He will grow up with very few memories of his father. His two year old son Logan and one year old daughter Chloe will have no memories of him at all. Pausch hopes that this lecture, which will be recorded on video tape for posterity, will one day give his children some idea of who their father was and what he stood for. Long after he's gone, this lecture will remain. “An injured lion,” he says, “still wants to roar.” Having won over his wife, Pausch dedicates himself to crafting his last lecture.

Which choice best explains why the author put the battle with Grendel's mother at the bottom of the lake? A The lake is difficul
Kamila [148]

Answer: D The dark lake represents the evil of Grendel's mother, thus contrasting with the goodness of the Danes.​

Explanation:

Beowulf is a warrior from Geatland who came to rescue the Danes from a monster known as Grendel who had been terrorizing the kingdom every night. Beowulf manages to kill Grendel but is then confronted by Grendel's mother who even though less powerful than her son, is a tougher opponent as she is full of revenge.

Beowulf goes underwater to fight her in a cave at the bottom of a dark lake and upon defeating her, a light shines into the cave. This was meant to imply that Grendel's mother was the evil that had been keeping the cave in darkness but now that she was defeated the light could now come in.
