Read the excerpt from “Tears of Autumn.” She had not befriended the other women in her cabin, for they had lain in their bunks f

or most of the voyage, too sick to be company to anyone. Each morning Hana had fled the close­ness of the sleeping quarters and spent most of the day huddled in a corner of the deck, listening to the lonely songs of some Russians also traveling to an alien land. How does this excerpt from "Tears of Autumn" develop the setting of the story? It demonstrates how lonely the trip is for Hana. It reveals how the stuffy cabin adds to Hana's anxiety. It reveals how long the journey to America is for Hana. It explains how small and cramped the ship is.

Answer:

A) It demonstrates how lonely the trip is for Hana.

Explanation:

“Tears of Autumn” is a story by Yoshiko Uchida (1921 – 1992), In which an orphan, young Japanese woman named Hana Omiya leaves her home (in a Japanese village) and travels to America for better life opportunities. The story is narrated in third person point of view. The theme of the story is "taking chances to improve one's life".

First option is correct because the phrases in the excerpt like,<em> </em><em>"not befriended the other women"</em><em> , </em><em>"huddled in a corner of the deck,"  </em>and<em> "the lonely songs"</em> show that the author is trying to present a lonely setting of Hana's trip.

Second option is not correct because this except does not tell us that the cabins were over-crowded.

Third option is not correct: Although we can infer that the journey is long, but the stress throughout the excerpt is on loneliness of the journey also foreshadowing loneliness in Hana's own life.

Fourth option is also not correct because the excerpt tells otherwise i.e the ship is not cramped but it is lonely.

Semenov [28]

Answer:

Arti-culate.

Explanation:

Hyphenating any word in cases of the word ending at the line is a common occurrence that happens all the time. But about how the hyphenation must be done or how the word should be separated has a bit of a rule into it.

First of all, <u>any word that needs to be hyphenated must be done according to the syllable</u>. For example, the word "purple" must be hyphenated as "pur-ple" with the different syllables put together and then separated by the hyphen. This division of words according to the syllables ensures that the sound or reading of the word isn't changed.

Also, the <u>use of the hyphen mid-word at the end of a line must be done in such a way that the hyphen is in the first line with at least two letters before the hyphen</u>. In this case, the word "articulate" has four syllables which can be divided as "ar/ti/cu/late".

Considering the options provided, "artic-ulate" and "articul-ate" are wrong for they mixed up the syllables. Thus,<u> the correct answer is "arti-culate"</u>.

Answer:

The lady and the shopper

On a single beautiful Friday morning, I was running the cash register at my job, "Billy's Grocery Store." I had just got done scanning a huge load of groceries from a expecting mother and a tired looking father. It looks like they bought out the whole pastry section! But who am I to judge, because I did the same thing when my son was born! But then the next customer was a little man, and he had just got his groceries scanned and was heading to pay. He couldn't find his charge card anywhere and was repeatedly saying over and over how sorry he was for holding up the line. So I did the only reasonable thing. I pulled out my own charge card and payed for his little basket of baked goods, and medications. He was so surprised, and he explained that this was for his wife who is really sick. He went out to get her meds, and he decided to buy her some snacks to make her feel better. I think this was the best day at my job ever, helping people always puts a smile on my face! :)
