Read the excerpt from "Tools of the Spymaster." General Clinton, concerned about what General Howe was planning and doing, made

use of a mask to write a secret message in a letter to General Burgoyne. Before writing the letter, Clinton had placed an hourglass-shaped mask on a piece of paper and then had formed the secret message within that shape. The unmasked letter had enough false information in it to fool any American who happened to see it. But when Burgoyne viewed the letter with the mask, he read Clinton's view of the real situation: Howe has made a bad move; I don't have enough men to do anything about it.

How do you write a good essay?
Anton [14]
That depends on what kind of essay we are talking about. If you are talking about a persuasive essay, then use different appeals and techniques, like ethos, logos,pathos, facts and figures, or testimonial. If we're talking about a narrative essay, then use plenty of imagery and sensory details, plus make sure to have plenty of characterization for your dynamic characters.

The oval office_____ in the white house, is the office of the president of the United States. (a) was situated (b) is situated (
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

B, "is situated"

Explanation:

Process of elimination:

A: The Oval Office is in the White House today, so the sentence should not be in the past tense.

C: This is not grammatically correct. The sentence needs a verb of a tense of "to be" like "is" or "was".

D: This is not grammatically correct. The sentence needs a verb of a tense of "to be" like "is" or "was". Also, since the Oval Office is singular, the word would be situates instead of situate anyway.

what might have been Enn's first indication that something was amiss with the girls ath the party? Did he seem to recognize the
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Enn's first inclination that something was amiss with the girls at the party would have been the bizareness of the name of the first girl Wain's Wain, the second girl with a gape-tooth that claims she has been to the Sun and the third girl Triolet who puts him in a trance after she whispers a "poem" into his ears.

Explanation:

In the short story <em>"How to Talk to Girls at Parties" </em>by Neil Gaiman, a shy boy Enn goes to a party with his extrovert friend Vic.

When they arrive at the party, Vic meets a girl named Stella and starts flirting with her and encourages Enn to flirt with any girl of his choice.

Enn begins talking to a girl named Wain's Wain who somehow sees herself as a "second" because of a deformity on her finger, she goes on to tell him a very unusual story about being in Rio and says she is not "permitted" to participate in much and she is gone when Enn leaves to get a glass of water.

He meets a second girl with gape-tooth that claims she is a tourist who has been to the Sun. Vic interrupts them and says they are at the wrong party because a lot of weird things were happening and the girls might be aliens.

What is the theme of Model Millionaire
kogti [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

The model millionaire – Oscar Wilde

The model millionaire is a short story written by Oscar Wilde in 1871. The theme of the short story deals with a very materialistic aspect of life in a mercantile world in which the protagonist Hughie Erskine is a complete misfit. Despite of the attractive appearance and charming personality, his lack of money prohibits him from marrying the girl he loves – Laura. Her father demands a total of £10.000 to prove his worth to him and accept him as a son in law. The demand is only of economical character, because of the fact that Hughie quick and easily achieved the acceptance of the father as a person. This issue defines the very essence of the short story, of which it becomes clear that "romance is the privilege of the rich, not the profession of the unemployed." But is that so in the real, contemporary world? Is love only appropriate in the world of the privileged or is it achievable for anyone? This attitude is quite an old fashion way of thinking which is very appropriate of the time period in which the text is written and so the modern man would probably controvert the statement. A controversy claiming that love is a spirit with ability to posses anyone and so the modern expression “Love is for everyone” manifests itself.

A second theme in the short story is represented in terms of kindness. It is expressed to its fullest that being kind pays out in the end. Hughie shows his kind side when he generously offers the ‘beggar’ his last money (a sovereign), ignorant to that fact that he is actually a rich baron. This generous gesture turns out to be of huge importance as it forms the basis for the Baron to sponsor the money required. This emphasizes that even in a thoroughly materialistic world, tender qualities and human values are not to be dispensed. This detail comes to be quite important because it reminds the reader of the…...
