Well I can answer what the word beast suggests about the text.
I think it is suggests that they don't know much about the people of Mars, the life forms that lived there so they are frightened of them. They know that they are intelligent, or were, but also acknowledge how the planet is nearly impossible to sustain life with all of its water frozen.
Hope that helped, I don't know much about English class in highschool yet so I wasn't sure exactly how to answer the question.
Alliteration is the answer
B. the 1755 Lisbon earthquake
I’m pretty sure that it’s the second one. I definitely know that it’s not the last one
I would also agree, that The woman in the blue dress is the complete subject
The= article
woman=subject
(in the blue dress)= prepositional phrase... in being the preposition, the being the article word, blue being the adjective, and dress being the object of the preposition
hurried= would act as your verb
across the street= another prepositional phrase
Hopefully this helped and good luck.
