Answer:

<u>he was confused</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Note, we are told that, "Anthony awoke to laughing and applauding," in other words, he woke up by an unusual action, "laughing and applauding". This causes Anthony to wonder confusingly what had occurred, which fits in with the definition of the word, "quizzical".

The word quizzical is an adjective that is often used to denote the expression of someone who appears to be confused or amused.

How do a psalm of life and auspex differ in how they describe the concept of time?
Arisa [49]

The correct answer is:

"Psalm" suggests that the passage of time cannot defeat the soul, while "Auspex" indicates that it can.

"A Psalm of Life", usually subtitled "What the Heart of the Young Man Said to the Psalmist", is a poem composed by American writer Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

James Russell Lowell (1819-1891) was an American poet and diplomat.

They both were part of the Fireside Poets, a group of New England writers among the first American poets who competed with British poets.

Types of Figurative Language used: Imagery, onomatopoeia, personification, simile

What I think my summer will be like might be really fun. What I hope and plan to do will be to hang out with friends and enjoy the warm, soft breeze as we hang out together during the bright, sunny day and possibly during the quiet, starry nights. What I would also want to do is play video games with friends while I listen to the soft click-clacking of the controller's joysticks and buttons. I would also love to stay inside for a few days and enjoy some time alone while I sketch or paint, and watch as my pencil or paintbrush dance along the canvas, creating a beautiful scenery. I'd also like to go to the movies with friends or family and take in the smell of freshly popped popcorn and eat my favorite candies and snacks as we watch the movie while whispering as quietly as mice. I'd like to go to the park with some friends and family and celebrate each other's birthdays and play around together while we wait for cake. At the end of each week, I would want to lay back on my bed and watch my favorite animes and catch up on mangas that I left alone while I was so busy with school. Another thing I would want to do as well would be to go see relatives that live a little far and spend a day or two with them as we enjoy our time together and have fun. There's many other things I would love to do, but I think I'll take it one day at a time.
