The excerpt of this question is missing; here is the missing excerpt:

Read the excerpt from chapter 8 of The Travels of Marco Polo and study the map.

[This] is an island lying about 1,000 miles south of Socotra. The people are Saracens who worship Mahomet. They have four sheikhs—that is to say, four elders—who exercise authority over the whole island. You must know that this island is one of the biggest and best in the whole world. It is said to measure about 4,000 miles in circumference. The people live by trade and industry. More elephants are bred here than in any other province; and I assure you that not so many elephant tusks are sold in all the rest of the world put together as in this island and that of Zanzibar.

The correct answer to this question is C. Madagascar

Explanation:

In the excerpt, the narrator refers to an island located "about 1,000 miles south of Socotra". About the island, the narrator describes some geographical features of it, as well as, features of its people. This includes the detail "More elephants are bred here than in any other province" that shows the number of elephants bred in this island is higher than in any other region.

Now, on the map, it can be deduced the island the author describes is Madagascar (Location C) because this is the only island located to the South of Socotra (Location A), which coincides with the description in the excerpt.

How does the last stanza contribute to the structure of "The Golden Cat"? It provides the reasons for the actions of the sun in
inna [77]

Answer:

It sums up what the poet has written about the sun in the first three stanzas.

Explanation:

The contribution the last stanza made to the structure of "The Golden Cat" is that it sums up what the poet has written about the sun in the first three stanzas.

<em>Below is the excerpt of that stanza:</em>

<em>His face is one big Golden smile,</em>

<em>It measures round, at least a mile—</em>

<em>How dull our World would be, and flat,</em>

<em>Without the Golden Pu**y Cat.</em>

Here, the poet buttresses the point he made about the sun. He states that our world will be dull without the Golden Cat. So, it's clearly seen that this stanza sums up what have been said about the sun in the previous stanzas.

Barbara Kingsolver establishes the style of the novel by using phrases like "ugly as a mud stick fence," "pie-faced heavy girl,"
ivanzaharov [21]
I think that the author intended <span>D. to give the reader an understanding of life in Missy's rural Kentucky town. 

The author's use of </span><span>phrases like "ugly as a mud stick fence," "pie-faced heavy girl," "for-pay ironing," and "dressed like an eye test." is simply to show how Missy thinks and speaks. She is a girl who is brutal and honest in her opinion and she doesn't mince words. She just tells what she sees as it is.  </span>
