The simple past tense shows that you are talking about something that has already happened. Unlike the past continuous tense, which is used to talk about past events that happened over a period of time, it is simply an action that is finished.

usually ends with ed

example: I finished my homework

finished is done already

Answer:

I believe, put simply, Frankenstein has been killed by his monster. His friend, whose name cannot be derived from the passage, has found Frankenstein's corpse and Frankenstein's monster above him. Frankenstein's monster seems remorseful about killing their creator. However, the 'friend' is basically saying 'Bro, if you had just listened to your gut and your conscience, my dude, Frankenstein would still be alive'. What happened after is a bit murky, but basically, Frankenstein's monster is like,

'Do you dream? Do you think I don't feel hurt and guilt? After the murder of Clerval, I went off to Switzerland, feeling down. I felt bad for Frankenstein, then it turned to horror. I felt disgusted about myself. But then I found out that Frankenstein, the guy who made me and all of my problems, wanted to be happy. While he made my life horrible and piled torments on me, he tried to find happiness in the things I couldn't experience. Then I became angry, and I wanted revenge. I put aside my problems and adapted to the way I had chosen to feel...'

This is still a bit off, and it might not solve the entire problem, but I hope it clears up a few things??

"C. Please finish loading the dish- washer before leaving" is the only sentence that uses a hyphen correctly, since hyphens are most often used to separate two words that could stand alone in other instances.

Which of these is a good strategy for reducing your cable TV bill?

kirill [66]

Answer: E: all of the above except choice D.

Explanation: Choice D is just down horrendous.

From personal experience, choice A is a good one because there are many cable / satellite packages. For example, one of America's leading providers, Dish, also known as Dish Network, has four main packages at different monthly prices. Here are the main packages listed, without taxes, etc:

America's Top 120 - $64.99/mo.

America's Top 120 Plus - $79.99/mo.

America's Top 200 - $89.99/mo.

America's Top 250 - $99.99/mo.

Of course this is just for a two year contract, but onto the others.

For choice B, bundling does indeed help save the customer money, as learned with my grandmother's AT&T bill. They combined internet + phone as they don't have cable or satellite, but it helps them save a good amount per month on their bill.

For choice C, I will substitute "Redbox", or DVD renting, for streaming services. Most services are around $7-$20 per month. HBO Max for example, is $14.99 per month, which is just one available package. Other services such as Netflix and Hulu have a couple different packages and add-ons. As the years have gone by, more and more people have started paying for streaming services, and many have even cut off cable completely! Cable and satellite TV can be extremely expensive as shown above on the answer for choice A with the Dish Network example. That wasn't even with taxes and equipment fees for the Hopper and Joey DVR boxes.

All in all, anything except choice D will help you reduce your cable TV bill. Sorry for the long explanation, I just have vast knowledge about this topic!
