The short story “Civil Peace” has been written by Chinua Achebe. The thieves in the story are very bold and arrogant. But when Jonathan's family began to yell, the thieves responded to them by helping them. The thieves threatened them and mocked at them. They mocked them by crying out as the way Jonathan's family was crying out. The story is set in Eastern Nigeria right after the end of the Civil War.

Answer:

By imitating the cry for help of Jonathan's family as a way of mocking them.

Explanation:

Chinua Achebe's short story "Civil Peace" is mainly around the Nigerian Civil War and its effects on the people. The 'civil peace' that ensued this war was something that Achebe wants to greatly stress on in this story.

Jonathan Ewegbu was the protagonist of the story. He had been doing some small business and getting a good sum of money inflow. One night, robbers came to his house demanding he give them 100 pounds. It was this night of robbery that the question is asking about. When the family began yelling and shouting for help, the robbers began imitating them, shouting like they did. They mocked them in attempting to attract some sort of help.

ss7ja [257]
<span>The correct answer is the final sentence. The final sentence of this paragraph -- Ben sighed with satisfaction as he finally reached his trailer and opened the front door -- indicates that Ben likes living in Happy Trails Park. The other sentences illustrate that this is nice place to live: there are well-tended gardens, beautiful flowers, etc. However, only the final sentence proves that Ben is happy there, because we are told he "sighed with satisfaction" upon reaching his trailer.</span>

Answer:It's not much but it's original and I hope it helps :)

Her heart cold as ice her eyes gave a chilling gaze

whoever stood near could feel her fiery hatred like a lit fireplace in winter she was distant but when you did come near you knew her presence was there like winter the freezing feeling always there.

<h2><u><em>OR</em></u></h2>

Voldemort is a cold like winter. Cold in the sense that he has a dark soul. He speaks with an unfriendly tone similar to the feeling you get when it rains in the winter. The darkness starts early as he enters a room like sunsets early in the winter. When he terrorizes the other it’s like snowflakes falling because you never know when he is coming.

       It is always cold in the winter and the coldness he shows is similar. Cold meaning at a low temperature which might make you shiver. Voldemort is similar to this because sometimes when he looks at you, you might shiver. A cold, wet, dark winter is the perfect way to describe Voldemort as a person.
