In “The Bean Eaters,” what is the couple doing as they eat?

Read this excerpt from "After Twenty Years" by O. Henry.

OverLord2011 [107]

The answer is: The pacing slows down the text with deliberate and descriptive language, which gives the story a mysterious atmosphere.

In the excerpt from "After Twenty Years," the author O. Henry describes the winter scene with details about the weather and the how the people in the street are behaving, which gives a sense of mystery to the story.

The rest of the options are incorrect because the events in the passage do not depict surprise, humor or alarm. Besides, there is no further description of the man, and the pacing is not fast.

Essay about kindness

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

the dictionary defines kindness as the quality of being friendly, generous, and considerate. in our society we often forget what it truly means to be kind. we expect to be helped but are often rude or prideful towards others. how can we expect to be treated with kindness if we are not acting with kindness. our world is often driven towards anger and fear, but think of the difference the word could be if we just acted in kindness. the world is so divided right now and everybody needs a little love and compassion. we should think at the end of every day, "have I helped someone today? have a made anybody smile?" "there is nothing more truly artist that to love someone" - Vincent Van Gogh

PLEASE HELP ME which best examples how the character mowgli contributes to the theme.A. because mowgli want to be loud a obno

pentagon [3]

The character Mowgli was nurtured, just not by humans. Therefore, it is not answer C. Also, he was not "rejected by society" or an "outcast" so it is not A or B. The answer is D. Mowgli is a man who has grown up according to the rules and customs of the jungle, as it says, BUT even though he is a man, his ideas of etiquette and communication are those of animals, rather than people. Because of this, Mowgli does not understand "the law of men" which refers to how humans behave, which causes him to not be able to "fit in" with society. It's basically a cultural barrier. The whole theme of the story is that he is still human, even if his way of life is different. Sometimes, certain cultures look down upon others because they have different customs, which is rude and ignorant. This story has a theme of recognizing people as humans in spite of cultural differences.
