Explanation:
Answer:
B). Maddie looked forward to going home after work to watch RERUNS of her favorite show.
Explanation:
Concrete noun is demonstrated as the physical noun that could be experienced through our senses(sight, smell, touch, hear, or feel). These nouns are contradictory to the abstract nouns which could not be experienced through senses but rather felt.
As per the question, option B correctly underlines a concrete noun 'reruns' which implies 'a television program show or program that is run again after its initial presentation'. This exemplifies a 'concrete noun' as the audience can experience it through their sense of sight. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer as the other options either do not involve an underlined noun(option A) or wrongly underlines the verb as noun(in option C 'looked' is functioning as a verb) or underlines an abstract noun(option D underlined 'favorite' which is an abstract noun).
Answer: Dialect is one of the words that nearly everyone feels they understand, but it is really a little more problematic than it appears to be at first. A simple straightforward meaning is that a dialect is any form of English that is differentiated from others by distinctive linguistic features. Such a variety may be identified with a certain area or area or more interestingly, could also be associated with a specific social group—male or female, young or elderly, and so on.
However, whether the emphasis is geographical or social, there are two crucial aspects that need to be addressed when describing 'dialect.' We've got to determine what the building blocks of a dialect could be. And even before that, we might usefully confront the most basic errors that people make when relating to 'dialect.'
The correct answer for the first question: The lama is looking for "The River of the Arrow" because would be option 1. "He thinks he will be purified spiritually when he finds it". This is showed in the excerpt when the lama says "By it one attains freedom from the Wheel of things", meaning he wants to be free of his sins and thinks the river is going to help him achieve it. He does not give a reference as to god being the reason he wants to find the river therefore options 2,3 and 4 are incorrect.
The correct answer for the second question: The excerpt shows that would be option 3. "Kim is eager to show the lama he does not know where the river is located". This is shown in the excerpt when he repeatedly says that he does not know the location, for example " If I knew, think you I would not cry it aloud?". Option 1, 2 and 4 are incorrect because Kim does not appear under the lama's spell, he does listen to him, and has not expressed an interest in the river's powers.
I would say that the lines which show us how desperate the poet is are the following:
"... helpless in my throes, Biting my truant pen, beating myself for spite--"
As you can see here, the poet says he is helpless, meaning that he cannot find inspiration to write what he wants to write. Therefore he is desperate for some inspiration, which is why he is biting his truant pen in order to show how anxious he is to get his inspiration back.
