If, on the other hand, it turns into a mere crusade of appetite against appetite, of a contest between the brutal greed of the "

have nots" and the brutal greed of the "haves," then it has no significance for good, but only for evil. If it seeks to establish a line of cleavage, not along the line which divides good men from bad, but along that other line, running at right angles thereto, which divides those who are well off from those who are less well off, then it will be fraught with immeasurable harm to the body politic.
What is emphasized by the use of "brutal" to describe "greed" in the third paragraph?
A) It emphasizes how cruel greed can be.
B) It emphasizes how benign greed can be.
Eliminate
C) It emphasizes how temperate greed can be.
D) It emphasizes how superficial greed can be.

In which sentence does the underlined adverb modify an adjective? Young owls grow slowly. Young owls usually grow slowly. Very y
Natalija [7]
The correct answer is Very young owls grow slowly.
Here, the adverb is <em>very </em>and the adjective is <em>young, </em>so the adverb is used to modify the adjective, or to show a particular degree of the adjective (how young? very young.). 
In the rest of the options, there is only one adverb <em>slowly, </em>and it's not modifying an adjective, but rather the verb.

What is the theme of " The Weary Blues" by Langston Hughes?
8_murik_8 [283]

The central theme of “The Weary Blues” concerns the resilience of the archetypal “common” person who has times of despair or despondency. Music serves as a means of relieving pain or anxiety. The poem transcends the limitations of race, as all people have used music and poetry as a means of getting through bad times. The cause of the blues singer’s sense of isolation, loneliness, pain, and trouble is deliberately vague. His inability to identify the exact cause of his trials and tribulations, or the narrator’s unwillingness to speculate upon it, enhances the universality of those feelings. The unspoken but evident complexity of the interrelationship between the player and his piano and the narrator and the musician corresponds to the complexity and interrelatedness of musical and poetic traditions. The poem, in its unconventional thematic and formal structure, advocates an equal acceptance of the two.
