Answer:

C.

Explanation:

The Man and the Snake is a short story written by Ambrose Bierce. The story is about the death of Harker Brayton, who died out of 'fear of fits' by the presence of a toy snake in his bedroom.

The story begins with Brayton reading a newspaper article from 'Marvell's of Science.' The article talked about the quality of snakes that can lead a person to death without snake biting him or her.  The quote in the first paragraph from the magazine suggested that a man can die merely by looking intently into the eyes of the snake.

This quote foreshadows the presence of a snake in Brayton's room and his ultimate death by gazing into the snake's eyes and die out of fright. The quote established a persuasive power which led Brayton to fearful fits.

Thus the correct answer is option C.

Is this a simple compound or complex sentence? Australia's rain forests are located in the northeast.
Alenkasestr [34]

The correct answer is Simple

Explanation:

The sentence "Australia's rain forests are located in the northeast" is composed of a subject "Australia's rain forests" and a predicate "are located in the northeast" (verb and other details that complete an idea). This means this sentence only contains one clause (subject-verb/predicate unit) and due to this, it is classified as a simple sentence. Indeed, compound or complex sentences should contain two or more clauses but in simple sentences, there is only one clause or grammatical unit that is complete and expresses an idea.
