The mistakes:
• “I hear you will go to Paris last month”
Should be- “I heard you went to Paris last month.”
• “I am sure you will.”
Should be- “I’m sure you did.”
• “Will you see Sophia...”
Should be- “Did you see Sophia...”
• “I did heard Ridley...”
Should be- “I did hear Ridley...”
• “I will see our old friend Steven Eastwood last week.”
Should be- “I saw our old friend Steven Eastwood last week.”
• “He will be doing very well.”
Should be- “He was doing very well.”
• “It was called U.T...
Should be- “It is called U.T...”
• “You must saw it.”
Should be- “You must see it.”
That’s all! The main problem through out this passage was the tenses. The mistakes should be put into past tense.
Hope this helps; have a good day! :)
Aww why thank you kind human or whatever you are, you could be a unicorn for all i know. Welp have a noice day and toodles.
This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question
White Noise
, by Don DeLillo
"I was convinced she was saying something, fitting together units of stable meaning. I watched her face, waited. Ten minutes passed. She uttered two clearly audible words, familiar and elusive at the same time, words that seemed to have a ritual meaning, part of a verbal spell or ecstatic chant. Toyota Celica. A long moment passed before I realized this was the name of an automobile. The truth only amazed me more. The utterance was beautiful and mysterious, gold-shot with looming wonder. It was like the name of an ancient power in the sky, tablet-carved in cuneiform. It made me feel that something hovered. But how could this be? A simple brand name, an ordinary car. How could these near-nonsense words, murmured in a child’s restless sleep, make me sense a meaning, a presence? She was only repeating some TV voice. Toyota Corolla, Toyota Celica, Toyota Cressida. Supranational names, computer-generated, more or less universally pronounceable. Part of every child’s brain noise, the substatic regions to deep to probe. Whatever its source, the utterance struck me with the impact of a moment of splendid transcendence. I depend on my children for that."
Why is this quote significant?
Answer:
Steffie mumbling “Toyota Celica” in her sleep shows the constant presence of technology as threatening and comforting at the same time, which is a prevailing theme in DeLillo´s novel.
Explanation:
In the same way that the airborne toxic cloud of dangerous chemicals paradoxically creates beautiful sunsets, Jack finds beauty at those marketing terms in the voice of the sleeping child.
Answer:For #3, it would be the third option
For #4, it would be leave
Explanation:
For #3, batteries is the correct option because battery's is meaning like battery is , which isn't what we are doing.
For #4, it would be leave. Be leaving doesn't really sound true and leave is the more approved answer.
The author repeated the idiom about butterflies in Luisa's stomach three times throughout the story to show how Luisa's feelings of nervousness were decreasing as the day went on.
Idioms are groups of words that relate to a meaning which is not directly deducible. In other words, idioms express certain meanings that may or may not be literal but can be figurative.
- In the short story "Second Day, First Impressions", the author talks about <em>"butterflies"</em> in Lisa's stomach three times.
- Generally, <em>"butterflies in the stomach" </em>is an idiom that refers to a feeling of nervousness in the person.
- This way, we can assume that Luisa is in fact nervous about the Scavenger hunt in her school.
- But after reading through the story, we come to know that these butterflies in her stomach decreased as their scavenger hunt progresses.
Having <u>butterflies in one's stomach means a person is nervous</u> about a certain thing. And as such, the mentioning of butterflies in Luisa's stomach thrice throughout the story shows how her nervousness reduces as the day goes on. Thus, the <u>correct answer is option C</u>.
