Answer:

Explanation:

the excerpt is A Christmas Carol

by Charles Dickens (excerpt)

“Do you know the Poulterer’s, in the next street but one, at the corner?” Scrooge inquired.

“I should hope I did,” replied the lad.

“An intelligent boy!” said Scrooge. “A remarkable boy! Do you know whether they’ve sold the prize Turkey that was hanging up there?—Not the little prize Turkey: the big one?”

“What, the one as big as me?” returned the boy.

“What a delightful boy!” said Scrooge. “It’s a pleasure to talk to him. Yes, my buck!”

“It’s hanging there now,” replied the boy.

“Is it?” said Scrooge. “Go and buy it.”

“Walk-ER!” exclaimed the boy.

“No, no,” said Scrooge, “I am in earnest. Go and buy it, and tell ’em to bring it here, that I may give them the direction where to take it. Come back with the man, and I’ll give you a shilling. Come back with him in less than five minutes and I’ll give you half-a-crown!”

The boy was off like a shot. He must have had a steady hand at a trigger who could have got a shot off half so fast.

“I’ll send it to Bob Cratchit’s!” whispered Scrooge, rubbing his hands, and splitting with a laugh. “He sha’n’t know who sends it. It’s twice the size of Tiny Tim. Joe Miller never made such a joke as sending it to Bob’s will be!”

Answer:

But the rose-colour swiftly faded." I emphasize with this phrase/quote as it symbolises  that the warmth of the colour rose was fading away, which shows that something dreadful had occured for this to happen. The verb "swiftly" means quickly showing a quite similarity of someones life ending. Comparing to the rest of the extract this phrase shows how the sky was drained out of its colour. This phrase implies the sky is slowly loosing its happy touch which gives off some sort of hope to the reader.

Explain which cultures values more closely match your own why​
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Yes, it is very much true that almost every culture has its own values, ethical paradigms, religion, practices, rituals, norms, educational systems, language and behavioral patterns, but somehow or other they are similar in the basic patterns but with varying intensity. Every culture will have a particular religion which they follow, every culture have a language and rituals, but different cultures have different set of these dimensions and domains. In every culture, men and women live together in some kind of form and arrangements, where some give it legal and religion status as well, whereas, as in some culture living together is more important than any other rule or regulation but pattern of living life is the same. Why this is so, because we are all human beings and we have almost the same needs, state of felt deprivation, we all want to eat something, but we differ when it comes to wants. In some culture, if you are hungry, you can eat pizza, while in some other culture you eat Chicken tikka masala. Difference comes in terms of shape of the rules, but rules are same, you eat, wither it could be pizza or chicken tikka masala.
