Answer:
The change in Manuel's heart is brought about by the suspicious behavior of Tomiko in frequently disappearing into the night and the presence of the same red fox he had fed in the desert before.
Explanation:
The story of "Manuel and the Magic Fox" by Ekaterina Sedia revolves around the protagonist Manuela and the red fox that he'd helped in the earlier part of the story. He had fed the fox and the fox had come back as a young Japanese girl named Tomiko to help Manuel and his sick mother.
At first, when Tomiko came to help out, Manuel felt <em>"renewed and confident"</em> in managing their daily life. He now has a partner to help out in the work. But then, he began to experience anxiety and resented Tomiko. This was brought about by the appearance of the same red fox one night. Even though he didn't think much about it, the fox's appearance in their garden led him to be anxious about something. And he did not think much about the occurrence, and even with the frequent disappearance of Tomiko at times, almost every night. But as it would have been, he started to be suspicious of her actions. He also <em>"grew resentful that she asked for his trust, while she did not offer hers"</em>. This mainly caused the change of heart in Manuel, for he felt that Tomiko also have the right to offer her trust and not expect only from him.
The correct option is: <em>the reader could set his or her own pace and reread parts for clarity.</em>
When we read a text, we are able to do it in <em>our own pace</em>, <em>managing our time</em>, and <em>reading again</em> the parts we could not understand the first time.
On the other hand, <em>listening to audios</em> (or watching videos) can easily <em>affect our emotional perception</em> about a particular theme.
'Before they ate a snack' is the correct answer, it is the adverbial clause of time. A cannot be correct because that is an independent clause, and adverb clause has to be dependent. B isn't a clause at all.
An idiosyncrasy is a characteristic, habit, mannerism, or the like, that is peculiar to an individual.
Sadly, Captain Canot didn't believe that the treatment of slaves was a problem. Like most people in his time, it was common to think of slaves as only sub-humans. To Captain Canot he was just carrying regular old cargo that just so happened to be alive and breathing.
Captain Canot was a person who captured slaves to make them work for him, he gave them little privileges and had zero qualms about it.
(I wasn't able to get access to any text for a clearcut example, but essentially you're supposed to find an example in whatever text you are reading to support that he was completely ok with slavery. Like, in what ways did he explicitly imply that slavery is a good thing, or what actions and feelings do he have towards it being a thing? And then explain it.)
