English

Answer:

It emphasizes the narrator's feeling of anxiety.

Explanation:

Describing the diving board as "lonesome" shows that the narrator is nervous about going onto it all by her/him self and having to jump off it.

ALSO...

<em>I just took the test. I chose "It describes the appearance of the diving board", but it was wrong and the correct answer is "It emphasizes the narrator's feeling of anxiety.</em>

<em>HOPE THIS HELPS!!! :)</em>

I believe we should not be given any homework today.  Our class works hard and we do a lot of homework.  My parents might be fed up with the lack of time they get to spend with me. Do you really want an angry letter and a bad rating? My parents want me to enjoy life and be a kid.  Also, if we didn't have homework tonight, I could get together and reconnect with friends i have not seen for a long time.  Isn't friendship and joy more important than homework? So, as I hope you can see, homework is not a priority compared to simple joys of life like family and friendships. I hope you will not assign any homework tonight. :)

Read this excerpt from "Letter to George III, 1793" by Emperor Qian Long:
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

I would say the correct answer is B. To give the English king a graceful way out of what could be an  awkward situation.

Explanation:

The emperor's letter is a perfect example of a well-balanced political message. <u>He clearly states his political position while still paying due respect to his counterpart.</u> Translated to modern, everyday English, this passage would mean: "Your request is unreasonable and goes against all principles and rules of my great empire; still, I will be gracious enough to assume that you meant no offence." This way, <u>the emperor turns down a request without making an enemy</u>.

True, the emperor refuses King George's request to intensify trade connections between the two countries. But he doesn't go so far as to warn the English king of anything. His tone remains polite throughout the letter. Therefore, A) isn't correct.

On the other hand, C) isn't correct because Qian Long presents his current political stance and the politics of his empire as definite and immutable. Therefore, there is no room for change - not now, not ever.

Finally, D) isn't correct because the emperor knows very well that an ambassador always speaks on behalf of his sovereign. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible that a political envoy would take liberty to speak on his own terms.
