Answer:
D). "Then the sky darkens, and a loud splattering of rain begins to fall."
Explanation:
The setting describing the darkening of the sky and the loud splattering sound of the beginning of the rain functions to signal the progressing action of the scene. It functions to indicate to the readers that things will not remain as merry as a picnic sight has to be. The sound of rain and dark sky breaks the enjoyment, calmness, and relaxing environment of the day and symbolizes that something fierce is approaching. This prepares the readers for an onset storm and hence, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
Answer:
I believe the theme of the story revolves around truth and how it can be defined or changed by those who have more power.
Explanation:
Ambrose Bierce's "The Difficulty of Crossing a Field" is a one-page short story. A man named Williamson is crossing a field when he suddenly disappears. However, only two people are listened to and believed when it comes to this strange fact - Mr. Wren and his son. But most importantly, Mr. Wren and his son are white men who own some land. Williamson's own wife and the slaves working on the field are not listened to or believed at all. The wife is even said to have lost her mind. The inferiority of Africans and women is clearly shown - and let's make it clear that Bierce is criticizing such an action. Everyone saw his disappearance, everyone came up with different explanations to it, but the woman and the slaves were not considered worthy of being heard and trusted. The "truth" in the end is something chosen, established by a few.
Let's put all these components together to build a model of the communication process:<span>A sender encodes information.The sender selects a channel of communication by which to send the message.The receiver receives the message.The receiver decodes the message.<span>The receiver may provide feedback to the sender.

In my opinion, I believe answer #4 is the correct answer.
"Are you saying that in 10 years the city's tax income will be 70 percent less than this year?"
Many people often laugh at others but when the same thing happens to them they feel awful. When you treat others with respect and sympathy they will treat you the same back. An example is let’s say somebody got 89% on a test. You see it and humiliate the person in front of the whole class. You then receive your test and you think that you got 100% instead you got 60% the class then asks what you got on the test and you wouldn’t answer so somebody grabbed it and looked. You would feel embarrassed and humiliated. If you didn’t humiliate the other person nobody would have humiliated you.
