Answer:

The desk was covered with books, the rug was littered with games, and the bed was covered with clothes; <u>however</u>, Sam claimed that his room was not messy.

Explanation:

Transitional words are used to link ideas in a sentence, paragraph, or a text. As the name suggests, they help the speaker/author transition from one idea to another smoothly, even if the ideas are different or opposite.

In the sentence we are studying here, the writer describes a room that is clearly messy to most people's standards. Books, games, and books are carelessly tossed all around. It would be only natural for Sam to agree that the room is far from being neat. However, he does not. We need "however" to make this transition because it connects opposing ideas. The other options, "therefore", "while", and "finally" would not convey this discrepancy between Sam's opinion and reality.

Which lines in this excerpt from Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" clearly depict the speaker’s grief over the loss of Lenore and hi
JulijaS [17]

Answer: C. "Leave my loneliness unbroken! quit the bust above my door! Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!"

Explanation:

In <em>The Raven</em>, the speaker is dealing with a recent death of Lenore, a woman he loved. One night, he is visited by an unusual guest, the raven that can speak. The raven, however, only utters one word - <em>"Nevemore".</em>

In this excerpt, the speaker is deeply distraught and orders the raven to leave. He wants the bird to return to the storm and leave its perch on the bust of Pallas above his door. The speaker, moreover, wants to be alone and to deal with his loss all by himself. He does not need companion at this point, especially not this supernatural creature that responds to every question with the same, not so promising word.
