The correct word is “gazed”. The verb gaze is used to describe the action of looking / staring at something for a long period of time – be it because that something being watched is impressive or simply because the watcher is distracted and pensive. In the passage, the word gaze does NOT impact the mood.
What really impacts the mood in the passage are the other words – marvels, profound, wonder, mysterious, spectacle and phenomena – since their meaning convey an idea of something unnatural, exciting and incredible happening before the eyes of the narrator.
The passage was taken from the book <em>A Journey to the Centre of the Earth</em> by Julio Verne. The narrator is struggling to describe his sensations when he finds a gigantic cavern and the Central Sea below the surface of the Earth.
Answer:
The correct answer is: c, a complex sentence
Explanation:
This is an example of a complex sentence. A complex sentence is compounded by two statements, one is the independent clause and the second one is the dependent clause. The first one can be a sentence alone, it does not need another statement to make sense, however the dependent clause cannot be a sentence by itself even though it has a subject and a verb, because it does not have sense by itself, it needs the independent clause to have a meaning
dependent clause: Although he was drafted into the Vietnam War
independent clause: Muhammad Ali refused to fight.
The purpose of the lines is to introduce the ghost. He says what kind of a night it was and describes the setting in which they saw the ghost. They comment on how the ghost resembles the dead king. We see that Hamlet is not the only one that sees the ghost but rather more people.
