B. With your own list of unfamiliar words, write down the ways that will help you understand
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

1. Autodidact

2. Ominous

3. Hydrophobia

Explanation:

Unfamiliar words are words that are strange to us because we do no use them every day. In order to understand these words, we could use several methods such as

1. The context in which the word was used. For example, note how I could decode the meaning of autodidact from this sentence. "His independent quest for knowledge turned him into an autodidact". I can decode from this sentence that the unfamiliar word means that the subject or person being talked about is self-taught.

2. Through other examples. "The approaching mob created a weird, strange, and ominous feeling in the little children". The fact that I know the meaning of the other words gives me the idea that the word ominous should mean a strange feeling because something bad is about to happen.

3. Through the root and suffix. Hydro means water while phobia means fear. Therefore, hydrophobia would mean the fear of water.

Refer to Explorations in Literature for a complete version of this story.
ira [324]

They ask the priest to sprinkle holy water on the grave so the old man’s spirit will make it rain.


When the priest is asked to home to the burial with the holy water, the priest initially refuses since the family did not ask him to say the funeral rites or have Mass. Leon, who comes to get the priest says, "we just want him to have plenty of water." Then the last line of the story says, "he was happy about the sprinkling of the holy water; now the old man could send them big thunderclouds for sure." From this we can infer that the people expect Teofilo to make it rain now that he has died. This also connects with the title of the story.

Read the quote by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Write a one paragraph response in which you tell what the quote means and how it a
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Dr. King’s tone as he begins his letter is remarkably restrained. Considering the context – he was in solitary confinement when he learned that Birmingham clergymen had together issued a statement criticizing him and praising the city’s bigoted police force – he had every reason to make his letter a rant. And yet this address announces his purpose loud and clear: he aims not to attack but to explain. Rather than indicate what separates him from the other clergy, he calls them “fellow clergymen,” underlining one of the letter’s main themes: brotherhood. Of course, there is no shortage of passive aggressive attacks and criticism throughout the letter, but the tone remains polite, deferential, at times almost apologetic, creating a friendly and ironic tone. This marvelous collection of attributes is present from these very first words.
