Based on the details in the excerpt, what is its primary purpose?

a. to explain to children that the moon causes the tides

b. to warn fishers to avoid pulling too hard on their lines

c. to entertain children with a joke about a rat and a fisherman

d. to inform fishers about when it is easiest to sail on the Perak River

Read the excerpt from "The Crab That Played with the Sea.”

And the Rat of the Moon stopped biting the line; and the Fisherman let his line down till it touched the Sea, and he pulled the whole deep Sea along, past the Island of Bintang, past Singapore, past Malacca, past Selangor, till the canoe whirled into the mouth of the Perak River again. ‘Kun?’ said the Fisherman of the Moon.‘Payah kun’ said the Eldest Magician. ‘See now that you pull the Sea twice a day and twice a night forever, so that the Malazy fishermen may be saved paddling. But be careful not to do it too hard, or I shall make a magic on you as I did to Pau Amma.’Then they all went up the Perak River and went to bed, Best Beloved.

Can someone help me with number 1 and 2 thank you.
ira [324]

Answer: 1. I believe it is a non-fiction piece because of the use of personification. For example Lucy the whale ask questions and has understandable dialogue. This would not be possible in real life.

2. That you should be happy with the uniqueness that you are born with, and not try to be like other people. You will never be anyone other than yourself; so when you try to achieve what others have, it can lead you to unhappiness as shown by Lucy the whale.

Hittite society was organized:
igor_vitrenko [27]

<u>Answer:</u>

Hittite society was organized: (3) by a king who directly controlled the people

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Hittites were an early Anatolian people. They formed an empire between 1600-1180 BCE. The Hittites used to manufacture advanced iron goods.  

The head of the Hittite state was the king, followed by his successor, usually his offspring. But there were few branches of the government led independently by some officials. Hittite’s used to worship storm Gods. So, the correct answer is Option 3. Other options are incorrect because neither king owned all the land as per option 1, nor they were organised with the pharaoh, his bureaucrats and then general people, as per Option 2. Option 4 says that the generals reporting to king used to rule, is also incorrect.

The Mole had been working very hard all the morning, spring-cleaning
Dovator [93]

Answer:The Mole had been working very hard all the morning, spring-cleaning his little home. First with brooms, then with dusters; then on ladders and steps and chairs, with a brush and a pail of whitewash; till he had dust in his throat and eyes, and splashes of whitewash all over his black fur, and an aching back and weary arms. Spring was moving in the air above and in the earth below and around him, penetrating even his dark and lowly little house with its spirit of divine discontent and longing.
