3 0

Answer:

The theme of the story is humility.

Explanation:

Humility comes from accepting what one has and not asking for more or turning to greed. Throughout the story, we see the fisherman being happy with what he has but his wife keeps asking for more, resorting to greed and not having enough. She takes advantage of the good deed her husband did by letting the fish go.

When a person visits a private investigator_______ the first time, he or she is asked a number of questions______ his/her assist
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

for; by.

Explanation:

A preposition can be defined as a word that shows or illustrates the relationship between a pronoun or noun and other words in a sentence. Some examples of a preposition used in various literary works in English language are up, below, after, by, against, for, over, at, to, etc.

The main purpose of a preposition as a part of speech is to introduce an object (of, upon), indicate a timeframe (from, by, over), show direction (to, across, along), location or place (at, up, after, below) and to illustrate the spatial or sequential relationship between two or more things, people, place, etc.

Therefore, the most appropriate or suitable preposition to complete the sentence are for and by. Now, we have the complete sentence as;

"When a person visits a private investigator for the first time, he or she is asked a number of questions by his/her assistant."

What reason does macbeth give for ordering the murder of banquo and his son ?
Delvig [45]
Banquo has done nothing wrong. He has been a good friend to Macbeth, never been disloyal nor was he a traitor. But Macbeth was suspicious of him because he was there when one of the prophecies referred to Banquo's heirs being heirs to the throne. Macbeth worries that his good friend will be suspicious of Duncan's murder because he was there when the prophecy said that Macbeth would be king. He wants to avoid a fruitless crown, so he decides to kill Banquo and his son in order to ensure that none of Banquo's issue take the throne after him.

lora16 [44]

Answer:

Vernon, where her husband is also buried.

The first answer makes it seem like she's still alive.

The Third one makes it seem like Vernon is the name of her husband.

The fourth one is correct cause it makes it seem like she died after her husband and he is buried there too.

The fifth one makes it seem like her husband died after her and she was already there.
