Answer: A. Some of the puzzle pieces are missing.
Explanation: "A pronoun that does not refer to any person, amount, or thing in particular." That is the definition of an indefinite pronoun. I also looked at examples and a list of pronouns and that was on there, so I am pretty sure A is the answer.
Answer:
Explanation:
In Walden, one of the many Transcendental concepts Thoreau expressed is the idea that God does not exist in some far away place, but lives instead all around us. "Heaven," he wrote, "is under our feet as well as over our heads." As a Transcendentalist, Thoreau believed that God manifests Himself in the natural world; therefore, nature lives as the source of spiritual truth for those who will seek it there. The poem's persona is one such person.
After listening to the astronomer analyze and "explain" the universe with his charts, diagrams, and mathematical formulas, the poem's speaker becomes "tired and sick." He leaves the stifling atmosphere of the confining lecture room and goes out into "the mystical moist night air."
The influence of Transcendental philosophy can be seen in the contrast between the attitudes and values of the lecturer and those of the poem's speaker. The astronomer intellectualizes nature, perhaps even brilliantly. He is very intelligent, but he is not wise. He understands facts, but he misses truth. The poem's speaker, however, understands that the truth of the universe, of nature itself, can only be understood spiritually. Rejecting the astronomer's carefully reasoned "proofs," he seeks truth instead by "[looking] up in perfect silence at the stars."

Answer:
having a damaged reputation
Explanation:
discredited means to lose your respectability.
Using context clues, why would the witness have left the courtroom in humiliation? It can't be because they have good judgment or that they were honorable. That leaves "sorrowful" and "having a damaged reputation." Having a damaged reputation is more tied to humiliation, but if you didn't pick up on that, credited means of respect and the opposite most closely means having a damaged rep.
Once upon a time, there was a king. He would ask three questions of everyone who came to him. The first question was “Who is the best of all the humans?”, the second was “What is a ‘best time’?”, and the third was “What is the best in all actions?”. The king was very anxious to know the answers to these questions.
One day, the king traveled to a forest and moved about the hills and plains. There, he saw an ashram and decided to rest in it.
