What evidence do you find in the story early autumn to suggest that Mary regretted losing ‘Bill’ more than he regretted losing h

kicyunya [14]

First, it signals the end of Bill and Mary's attempt at conversation, startling Mary into the present.

If the lights symbolize truth or revelation, then their sudden brightness represents the irrefutable passage of time and the impossibility of ever recovering or re-doing the past. That the lights run "the whole length of Fifth Avenue" further emphasizes the completeness of this truth; there is no way to escape the passage of time.

It's worth noting that the lights turn on right after Bill says, "You ought to see my kids" and grins. It's a surprisingly unguarded moment, and it's the only expression of genuine warmth in the story. It's possible that his and Mary's children might represent those lights, being the brilliant chains that link the past with an ever-hopeful future.

Answer:

1. Had had.

2. Hadn't tidied.

3. Had done.

4. Had tidied.

5. Hadn't done.

6. Hadn't seen.

Explanation:

A verb is one of the parts of speech in English language. Verbs can be defined as any word that describes an action, occurrence, or state of existence. Some examples of verb are dance, sing, walk, play, run, sit, etc.

In English language, to form a past perfect tense, you should use the past tense of "have" which is had in addition with the past participle of the main verb such as tidy, see, do, clean, etc.

This ultimately implies that, a past perfect tense comprises of two main parts; the past tense of have (had) and the past participle of the main verb.

Some examples of past perfect tense include the following;

1. Amy didn't invite Jack to the party because they had had (have) a fight earlier in the week. The past participle of "have" is had.

2. Daisy's dad was angry with her because she hadn't tidied (not tidy) her bedroom. The past perfect form of "not tidy" is hadn't tidied.

3. I didn't have to take the dog for a walk because Joey had (have) already done (do) it. The past participle of "have" and "do" are had and done respectively.

4. The house was looking really clean because mum and dad had tidied (tidy) everything away. The past participle of "tidy" is had tidied.

5. Kim had to miss her homework because she hadn't done (not do) her homework. The past perfect form of "not do" is hadn't done.

6. The driver almost caused an accident because he hadn't seen (not see) the red light. The past perfect form of "not see" is hadn't seen.

Which is a theme that runs through this story?

svp [43]

Answer:

The theme of this story is ( D) Not everything is as scary as it seems

Explanation:

We human beings have filled our lives with unnecessary tensions and fears.Some of our worries are genuine but most of them are not genuine.We have our own perceptions and viewpoints regarding different things..

If instead of facing the reality we try to fear than our problems will multiply,but if we become bold and face the problems strongly than the problem automatically vanishes.Like in a story of caterpillar and a hare ,the caterpillar was trying to scare the hare by taking the possession of hare's house .Caterpillar boomed out loudly to hare that "i am the one who crush the rhinos and tramples the elephants into dust".This voice scared the hare a lot.He thought caterpillar to be a huge animal.So hare got scared to enter it's own house.But at the end hare got to know it was only a caterpillar and he was unnecessary getting scared.

Same goes with our lives,it is not as complicated as we have made it by keeping thousand of worries and fears in our mind.We must try to overcome each and every fear by facing it,rather than running away from it.This is the only key to success.
