Story : A Dog’s Tale by Mark Twain
4. Read this sentence from the selection.
“Whenever she heard a large word she said it over to herself many times, and so was able to keep it until there was a dogmatic gathering in the neighborhood.”
In this sentence the word dogmatic is used as —
• an insightful simile
• a descriptive metaphor
• a humorous play on words
• an illuminating allusion
5. In the last paragraph the narrator says his mother would “fetch out a long word.” The connotations of the word fetch remind the reader that the narrator’s mother —
• is well educated
• is a dog
• knows lots of big words
• likes to show off
8. What is ironic about the author’s mother showing off with her knowledge of the word unintellectual?
• Her child knew she didn’t understand the word correctly.
• The strangers all already knew the meaning of the word.
• As any intellectual would know, the word should be “nonintellectual.”
• She did not know any synonyms for the word.
9. Which type of person is most like the author’s mother?
• A high-performing student with an excellent memory for words
• A very verbal person who always has a quick answer that sounds good
• A dishonest person who tells lies on a regular basis
• A person who likes dogs a lot and works at a veterinary clinic
Answer:
The word maleficent means causing harm especially by supernatural means, and we can determine this because the root 'mal' means evil as stated, and maleficent is a term used for evil occurences (specifically in movies and stuff)
Explanation:
So you can determine that the adjective describes something evil or bad because of the use of the root :) Sorry if this isn't specific enough, but it's quite straight forward to me at least so I don't know how to elaborate if you need a more formal answer
If I visited another nation and was only able to pack 3 items, I would have to choose carefully. The first thing I would pack is a dictionary or translation book of the new locations local language. This way I can make my way around and understand the basics of the language in order to live. The second thing I would bring is a pack of local treats / snacks in order to share with the new population. Being generous can help immensely in any new environment. The final thing I would bring it plenty of water, I have to drink if I want to survive.
The dictionary I would describe as a book of words to learn their language. The treats I would describe as food for them to enjoy. Finally, the water I would describe as nourishment for the soul.
I hope I've helped! :)
Language is our complex system of communication.Language is human specific because animals do not have this type of system of communication. They do not form sentences or have grammar and rules, etc.
