Your accused but not proven of the charge until proven in court and charged means you already pleaded guilty to your crime and responsible to pay your fine or in worst cases jail time.
It sounds like persuasive writing to me.
Hello. This question is incompetent. The full question is:
A poor substitute for food was this hide, just as it had been stripped from the starved horses of the cattlemen six months back. In its frozen state it was more like strips of galvanized iron, and when a dog wrestled it into his stomach it thawed into thin and innutritious leathery strings and into a mass of short hair, irritating and indigestible.
The sensory details in this excerpt help the reader understand how cold and harsh the weather is. How long food rations can last on the trail. How desperate the dogs are to eat. How poorly treated the horses are.
Answer:
How desperate the dogs are to eat.
Explanation:
The text manages to promote sensory details that show how the dogs were so hungry that they were content to eat anything that could satisfy the overwhelming and desperate hunger they felt. The hunger was so great that the dogs were able to eat extremely hard, frozen, tasteless and nutrient-free strips of leather, because that was more comfortable than the hunger they felt.
By using the context, we can determine that the meaning of the word "futile" in "Marigolds" is "fruitless" or "pointless".
- "Marigolds" is a short story by Eugenia W. Collier (born in 1928 in Baltimore). This is where the word "futile" appears in the story:
<em>"I suppose that </em><em>futile </em><em>waiting was the sorrowful background music of our impoverished little community when I was young."</em>
- What the narrator, Lizabeth, means is that is was pointless<u> to wait for things to get better, for poverty to just disappear.</u>
- The context and setting of the story is the <u>Great Depression</u>. Lizabeth and her family live in a very <u>poor neighborhood</u>, and things are only getting worse due to the <u>awful economic situation</u> of the country.
- Thus, waiting seemed futile, fruitless, pointless. Nothing was going to change.
