Answer:

somber and joyous

Explanation:

At the beginning of the excerpt, the setting is described as somber with the shadow falling on the world and the sun hiding behind a thick cloud. However, this changes when there is a "shout of joy". It says that Umuofla "broke into life and activity." The setting is not necessarily being described as sad, tragic or bitter. These emotions are too strong for the image of the clouds rolling in. Also, the contrasting image of the people shouting for joy does not exude humor or compassion necessarily. Happy isn't enough since they are shouting. Therefore the best choice is "somber and joyous".

Recently, I saw Donald Trump act ridiculous. Although Joe Biden has officially one this years election, our current president refuses to accept his defeat. Through out his campaign, he continuously made fun of others in an immature manner not exuding they proper mannerisms of a president. In other words, he was acting ridiculous. Especially giving the fact he is supposed to be a leader for our country. The tweets of him angrily being a sore loser about his loss help classify his actions and behavior as ridiculous.


I hope this helped!

PART A: Which of the following statements best summarizes a theme of the text?
Leto [7]

Answer:

C . Brute strength cannot defeat faith and courage.

Explanation:

Goliath is known to be a man of stature with great strength. However, the story of David is that, with faith that he can win, and with the courage to carry out the task, he can accomplish what is thought to be the impossible feat, which is to kill the champion of the Philistine army.

Some of the other answers are correct, but is not the best summary of the THEME in itself. For example, slingshots are truly effective weapons of it's day and age, being easy to train with and effective against not only unarmored but also poorly armored individuals. Highly trained slingshotters are able to hit unarmored parts, and proved to be extremely effective in certain cases. B is correct if you are to look through the lens of Goliath rather than David. On many accounts following his death, Goliath understimated his opponent, and even taunted the Israelite army for "sending out a dog to fight". He was sorely mistaken, and that led to his downfall.

A is the only answer that is definitely not correct, as there was no kindness involved, unless putting someone to eternal sleep is the hidden kindness for the pains of this world.
