Which two parts of this excerpt from W. W. Jacobs's "The Monkey's Paw" show that the White family does not believe in the talism

an's power? The other shook his head and examined his possession closely. "How do you do it?" he inquired. "Hold it up in your right hand, and wish aloud," said the Sergeant-Major, "But I warn you of the consequences." "Sounds like the 'Arabian Nights,'" said Mrs. White, as she rose and began to set the supper. "Don't you think you might wish for four pairs of hands for me." Her husband drew the talisman from his pocket, and all three burst into laughter as the Sergeant-Major, with a look of alarm on his face, caught him by the arm. "If you must wish," he said gruffly, "Wish for something sensible." Mr. White dropped it back in his pocket, and placing chairs, motioned his friend to the table. In the business of supper the talisman was partly forgotten, and afterward the three sat listening in an enthralled fashion to a second installment of the soldier's adventures in India.

Leya [2.2K]

YES.The purpose of the speech will help you identify ideas that will support your main idea or message. Rehearsing is a major requirement. The primary objective of speech writing is getting the right or appropriate topic.

The approach that you will use in your introduction can determine the success of your speech.What is the purpose of your speech?

The  three general of  speeches  is to inform, to persuade, and to entertain.In the speech, main points should be clearly stated and "signposted," marked off as distinct and important to the audience. Transitions often serve to signpost new points, as do pauses before an important idea.

Write a paragraph on your opinion what is personal fitness
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

In the beginning, I thought it was necessary for me to take a fitness class because I wanted to lose weight. My goal was to lose ten pounds because I noticed a difference in my weight after my first semester in college and my clothes did not fit the same. However, I realized that I should have a new goal for well-being. My fitness goal is to become healthier by eating foods that nourish the body and building a routine that will keep me active. My objective is to train my body where I can complete simple tasks such as walking up stairs without feeling winded. I have come to the conclusion that I will not be the same size I was as a freshman in college but I can take the initiative to be in shape and maintain good health.

Read the two excerpts from act 3, scene 2, of Julius Caesar. [BRUTUS.] If then that friend demand why Brutus rose against Caesar
alukav5142 [94]

Both Brutus and Antony ask rhetorical questions to make points.

In the excerpts both Brutus and Antony ask rhetorical questions. Brutus asks, "Had you rather Caesar were living, and die all slaves, than that Caesar were dead to all free men?...Who is here so base that would be a bondman?" Antony asks, "Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?...Was this ambition?"

The other options are simply incorrect. Brutus does not use ambition to be positive. He says that he slew Caesar because of Caesar's ambition. If he saw ambition as a positive, he probably would not have killed him. They do not described Caesar's weaknesses. Both of them address the crowd directly when they use the pronoun "you".
