Write a good topic sentence about how distance learning is hard
REY [17]

Answer:

Distance learning is hard because (point a) there is less in-person contact with teachers and other students, (point b) students have to manage themselves all the time, and (point c) students have more access to their phone and computer at any given time, which means more students choose to mess around instead of paying attention in school.

The dashes in this long sentence set off a series of appositives. (An appositive is a noun or noun phrase placed beside another
Serhud [2]

This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

No sooner had the reverberation of my blows sunk into silence, then I was answered by a voice from within the tomb!-by a cry, at first muffled and broken, like the sobbing of a child, and then quickly swelling into one long, loud, and continuous scream, utterly anomalous and inhuman-a howl!- a wailing shriek, half of horror and half of triumph, such as might have arisen only out of hell, conjointly from the throats of the dam.ned in their agony and of the demons that exult in the dam.nation.

    Edgar Allan Poe, “The Black Cat”

The dashes in this long sentence set off a series of appositives. (An appositive is a noun or noun phrase placed beside another noun phrase and used to identify or explain it.) What noun explained by the appositives?

Answer:

The noun phrase that is explained by the appositives is:

"a voice from within the tomb".

Explanation:

<u>An appositive offers more information about a noun or noun phrase in the sentence. It can be placed before or after the noun it refers to and, unless restrictive, it can be set off by commas or dashes.</u>

In the excerpt from the short story "The Black Cat", by author Edgar Allan Poe, we have a couple of appositives:

<em>-by a cry, at first muffled and broken, like the sobbing of a child, and then quickly swelling into one long, loud, and continuous scream, utterly anomalous and inhuman-a howl!- a wailing shriek, half of horror and half of triumph, such as might have arisen only out of hell, conjointly from the throats of the dam.ned in their agony and of the demons that exult in the dam.nation. </em>

<u>Those appositives refer to the noun phrase that comes right before them, that is, "a voice from within the tomb." What Poe does here is offer more information concerning that voice, what it sounded like. He does it so thoroughly that we can now vividly hear that inhuman voice in our minds, imagine its force and strangeness.</u>

<u />

NOTE: I had to type dam.ned and dam.nation like this because Brainly prevents me from posting the answer otherwise.

Is the trojan war a myth or a legend? support your response with adequate reasons​
Kitty [74]
It is a legend. Legends typically contain a small sliver of truth, but they become misconstrued and distorted over time.

"A legend contains some facts and becomes exaggerated to the point that real people or events take on a 'larger than life' quality. In contrast, a myth isn't based on fact, but is symbolic storytelling that was never based on fact."

- Bismarck Tribune, "Examining the difference between myths and legends"

"... It was an epoch-defining moment in their distant past. As the historical sources - Herodotus and Eratosthenes - show, it was generally assumed to have been a real event."

- BBC Culture, "Did the Trojan War actually happen?"
