What odd behavior does the Reverend Dimmesdale display in his speech to Hester on the scaffold

English
1 answer:
Monica [59]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Dimmesdale defends and praises Hester in his speech, which would be very strange behavior for a reverend like him.

Explanation:

Hester has an illegitimate daughter and refuses to say who the child's father is. As she lives in a Puritan society where patriarchy and conservatism reigns, she suffers prejudice and insults from the whole society. However, Reverend Dimmesdale (a cleric who should abolish Hester's sin) gives a speech in favor of Hester, where he praises her and reinforces her qualities. This is very strange behavior, which made the whole community suspicious.

Read the sentence: Tara-Lynn spotted a majestic bald eagle soaring over the trees. What is the preposition used in the sentence?
Sati [7]

Answer:

Over.

Explanation:

Prepositions are the words that tell us the position of the nouns. In other words, they tell us the relation of the nouns and pronouns with the other words in the sentence.

In the given sentence, "eagle" is the noun, "majestic" is the adjective, the verb is "soaring" and the preposition is "over". It tells us the position of the eagle, the movement of the eagle.

Thus, the correct answer is "over".
