Evening and quiet: a bird trills in the poplar trees behind the house with the dark green door across the road. 5 Into the sky,

the red earthenware and the galvanised iron chimneys thrust their cowls. The hoot of the steamers on the Thames is plain. No wind; 10 the trees merge, green with green; a car whirs by; footsteps and voices take their pitch in the key of dusk, far-off and near, subdued. 15 Solid and square to the world the houses stand, their windows blocked with venetian blinds. Nothing will move them. 2 How does the author use setting to convey a sense of isolation from others? A. By describing the evening as quiet B. By describing the greenness of the trees C. By describing how the houses act as barricades D. By describing how the chimneys rise into the sky

Answer:

C - By describing how the houses act as barricades

Explanation:

"(...)Solid and square to the world the houses stand, their windows blocked with venetian blinds. Nothing will move them (...)".

"Nothing will move them" means that nothing could ever penetrate those houses. Not the sound of cars nor the voices.

The houses stand alone, solid and square, with windows blocked. You can't get in or out, you are trapped, you are alone.

tatuchka [14]
<h3>Answer: Choice D</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

The dictionary is a useful tool here to trace word origins. Under the definitions should be a section that talks about the etymology of the word. This traces the word back through time (starting with the most recent and working back in time).

Under the entry for "cousin", it should mention Anglo French and Old French.

PLS ANSWER FAST WILL GIVE BRAINLY!!!!!!
Mrac [35]

Answer:

In addition to the physical differences between the two girls—Marcia was “cute,” but Cherry was “a real looker"—Ponyboy first realizes that Cherry and Marcia “weren’t alike,” by the way each girl handles the Coke Dally gives them.

Dally sees Ponyboy and Johnny at the movies with the two Soc girls and joins them. Dally thinks Cherry is attractive and he starts smart-talking her and saying inappropriate things to her. When he offers to bring everyone a Coke from the concession stand, Cherry is angry at the way that he has behaved and menaced them. She wants him to leave and tells him,

"I wouldn't drink it if I was starving in the desert. Get lost, hood!"

When Dally comes “striding back with an armful of Cokes,” and arrogantly says, “This might cool you off.” he hands one to each girl and their reactions are completely different. Cherry throws her Coke in Dally’s face, telling him,

"That might cool you off, greaser…”

STatiana [176]

Answer:

Explanation:

Your best choice is B, opposite of the word hamper. If you suppose someone,         you are trying to help them. If you hamper them, you are trying to stop them from doing something.

So A is wrong.

C is also incorrect. If they are opposite in meaning, one of the words will not define the other.

D is nonsense. As an answer it has no meaning. Parts of speech means verbs and nouns and pronouns etc. None of them are supports.
