English
1 answer:
Oxana [17]3 years ago
6 0

<u>Explanation:</u>

One may ask: what is Foreshadowing in literature? Basically, foreshadowing occurs when a writer<em> indirectly</em> gives a hint of what would happen later in the story.

Recall in the story <em>"The Monkey’s Paw"</em> the author, W.W Jacobs (William Wymark Jacobs) wrote initially <u>in part one</u> that Herberts' father was complaining about losing to son as they played the game of chess, and he added,

<em>"the  words died away on his lips, and he hid a guilty grin in his thin gray beard.” </em>

This single statement reveals (foreshadows) an important detail in the story that someone would die and that Mr. White would guilt because he was responsible.

what's the complete subject and simple subject of "a new tropical wave just entered the gulf of Mexico"​
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Complete Subject= New Tropical Wave

Simple Subject= Wave

Explanation:

"A complete subject is the simple subject, or the main word or words in a subject, along with any of the modifiers that might describe the subject."

Basically something like "wave" would be a simple subject because its not giving all the info about the wave, just that it is a wave. Whileas a complete subject would be "New tropical wave" because we were given all the info about the subject, making it complete.

List four things to look for when you're proofreading
dezoksy [38]

Spelling. Word choice. Consistency. Style. <span>

When you proofread (which is different from editing, by the way), you’ll really just be going over your writing for small mistakes/typos that may have slipped by you earlier in the writing process. Proofreading can be considered a type of “polishing up,” if you will, of a document before it is finalized. You’ll be on the lookout for little errors such as spelling errors and misused words/word choice—words that spell check may have missed because spell check generally only catches misspelled words, not correctly spelled words used incorrectly such as “their” when “there” should have been used or “two” when “too” should have been used. 

Additionally, when we are writing/typing, typically, our minds work more quickly than do our fingers. Thus, our fingers may miss words we intended for them to type. Too, our minds are such powerful things, if we read over our work too soon after typing, we’ll read our writing as we intended for it to be written, not as it actually is. 

Other things to look out for are consistency and style. When looking for consistency, it is important to make sure you are using the correct verb tense throughout because when speaking, we tend to switch tense for effect, and it is easy to let our speaking mannerisms find their way into what we are writing. 

On the topic of that, many of us often use clichés and figurative language when speaking, and this is something for which to be on the lookout when proofreading because we tend to speak figuratively in our daily lives so much so that when writing, we don’t even know we are doing it, and in academic writing, it is always best to be as literal as possible.</span>
