Read the following passage and answer the question that follows:

English
1 answer:
Sauron [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: A. He sets the opening of the story on a rainy day.

Explanation:

<em>The Metamorphosis</em> is a 1915 book by Franz Kafka. It is about a man called Gregor who is, over the course of one night, transformed into a huge insect.

In this particular excerpt, it is the rainy weather that makes the situation sad. Gregor did have a bad dream, but we are not given any particular information about it. Gregor is certainly not feeling sad because of his room, nor does his profession affect his mood. However, in the last excerpt, we see that the weather is described as "dull", and the author points out that the rain makes Gregor "quite sad." The fact that the author sets the story on a rainy day makes it even more melancholic

Plzzzzzz help me write a one-paragraph summary in the text box that follows the article.
Sati [7]

Answer:

Some scientists gaze into outer space to look for answers. Some scientists seek answers in the depths of the sea. When George Steinhauser wanted answers, he looked within himself. Also, Austrian chemist spent three years researching the contents of his navel and the navels of others. He has solved one of life's greatest mysteries. We now know exactly what bellybutton lint contains. Steinhauser presented his findings in the online version of the journal Medical Hypotheses. The Vienna University scientist analyzed over 500 samples to determine the exact makeup of the lint.

Hope this helps!!

Kalani and lael are students who have been comparing the total kinetic energy of an iceberg to an ice cube
Nitella [24]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Kalani and lael are students who have been comparing the total kinetic energy of an iceberg to an ice cube

Kalani’s Argument:  My claim is that an iceberg has more total kinetic energy (thermal energy) than an ice cube. This is because even though an iceberg is about the same temperature as an ice cube, it is also much larger, so it is made of a lot more molecules. For this reason, an iceberg will have more total kinetic energy (thermal energy) than an ice cube.

Lael's Argument: An iceberg has more total kinetic energy (thermal energy) than an ice cube because it is larger and made of more molecules. This matters because molecules move, and moving things have kinetic energy, so each molecule adds its kinetic energy to the total. Since the iceberg and the ice cube are around the same temperature, the fact that the iceberg has extra molecules means that it will have more total kinetic energy (thermal energy).

Which argument is more convincing?

Answer:

Kalani's argument is more convincing.

Explanation:

Lael says that the fact that Icebrg has extra molecules means that it has greater kinetic energy and this is not true, since the kinetic energy is greater in bodies and objects that have greater speed. In addition, speed increases as a body has greater mass. In this case, we can consider Kalani's argument as more convincing, since she related the kinetic energy to the mass of the iceberg.

Which linking word or phrase could be used to signal that more information is being introduced? until in addition in contrast no
IrinaK [193]
"In addition" can be used to signal that more information is being introduced.

<u>Other other phrases don't quite fit that job:</u>
  - "until" indicates <em>up to the point</em>
  - "in contrast" is used to <em>compare</em>
  - "now" just indicates the present time
