Answer: D) The emphasis on how people have been handicapped implies that society has gone to extremes to ensure equality.

Explanation: In the given passage from "Harrison Bergeron" by Kurt Vonnegut we can see the description of how the ballerinas were handicapped to ensure that none of them was better than the others. They had to wear sash-weights and bags of birdshot and also masks, in this way, it was clear that everyone was equal. This setting demonstrates that how people have been handicapped implies that society has gone to extremes to ensure equality.

The answer to this question is the letter "D" which is "The emphasis on how people have been handicapped implies that society has gone to extremes to ensure equality". Some defined absolute equality prevents people in expressing themselves and prevents them in doing things which will make them happy. Some under extremes trials just to attend equality and fairness.

Read the excerpt from chapter 1 of The Awakening.

ratelena [41]

Answer:

To help the reader picture the separation between Grand Isle and the coast of Louisiana.

Explanation:

Kate Chopin's "The Awakening" revolves around the story of Edna Pontellier, a woman, and her desire of living her true self and being free to do that. The story deals with themes of independence, feminism, identity, freedom, etc.

The given passage is from the first chapter of the story where the narrator reveals the scene of the cottage at Grand Isle. The Pontelliers had come to the holiday spot to get away from New Orleans for a few days. And when the narrator reveals that the "paper" is a day old and that the "Sunday papers had not yet reached Grand Isle", we can know that there is some distance between Grand Isle and New Orleans.

Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

them: I folded them neatly and put them in my drawer.

The pronoun It also might refer to more than one antecedent:

"I found an old box decorated with ribbons and a pink bow. It still looked pretty and new." (The pronoun It might refer to a box and bow.)
