Answer:

The correct answer is <u>B</u>: dislike.

Explanation:

In this excerpt, the word <em>contempt</em> expresses a lack of respect, scorn, and disregard towards the bacon. The rest of the options (cheer, encouragement, and motivation) refers to some positive feelings, while the tone of the sentence evokes disdain, disrespect, and dislike which Millie expresses after biting the bacon.

Tyson has created many general questions to guide his research. What should he do next?
yuradex [85]

Answer:

D. Narrow his focus

Explanation:

In writing a research,a topic has to be selected first. This could be provided by a supervisor or the individual, on a topic he is interested in. After forming a topic, many general questions should be formed. This would provide a wide view from which to assess the topic.

Too many general questions ought to be further narrowed into more specific questions. It is important that the researcher chose a topic on which information could be found easily. This would make it easier for the questions to be easily narrowed and not too broad. He should also avoid open ended questions, that is yes or no questions, so as to make the information more meaningful.

the witches are sometimes seen as representing fate, or destiny. Do they merely reveal what will happen, or do they manipulate e
ValentinkaMS [17]
In my opinion, they do not only reveal what will happen, but also manipulate events. When Macbeth approached the witches, they could have concealed the truth from him and just let the events unfold, but they didn't do it. They told him about the prophecy, thus initiating the events that soon followed. If they hadn't told him the truth, Macbeth might have never killed Banquo, Duncan, and the rest in order to become king. So yes, they manipulated events and caused a great tragedy.
