How does Black Hawk’s rhetoric in this excerpt advance his viewpoint that in order to save their own culture, Indians must def

eat the white men?We told them to let us alone; but they followed on and beset our paths, and they coiled themselves among us like the snake. They poisoned us by their touch. We were not safe. We lived in danger. We were becoming like them, hypocrites and liars, adulterers, lazy drones, all talkers, and no workers.

Answer:

Black Hawk uses the simile to show that the white man is corrupting the natives and that it will be necessary to exterminate them for this corruption to end.

Explanation:

The text shows that the natives wanted to live in peace, separated from the whites who pursued them, hindered their paths and even corrupted them. In this way the author uses the simile to show how white men make the natives look like they are corrupt, liars, hypocrites and lazy people, making it impossible to get rid of them just by moving away and creating the need to defeat them so that the natives can live in peace.

2. Mr. Diaz would have been on time to work if he had taken the bus.

3. If Angela hadn't brought a jacket, Luis would have given her his coat.

4. Sofia would have bought a new cell phone if she had had enough money.

5. If Mrs. Garza had known how cold it was outside, she would have worn a coat.

6. If Adriana had realized how tired she was, she wouldn't have stayed out so late.

7. If Javier had checked his watch, he would have known how late it was.

8. If we had known how late the bus was going to be, we wouldn't have waited for it.

Explanation:

This question requires knowledge about the third conditional.

<u>The third conditional is used in English to express hypothetical situations in the past. In other words, we are imagining possibilities about something that has already happened.</u> For example, suppose you forgot to bring some money with you. Because of that, you weren't able to buy a jacket you saw that was on sale. You can imagine how things would have been: "If I had brought some money, I would have bought that jacket."

The structure of the third conditional is the following:

if + had (not) + past participle, would/could/might (not) + have + past participle

The if clause will not necessarily be the first one every time. Take a look at the examples below:

- She would have told you if she had known how important it was to you.

- If you had talked to me about it, we could have found a better way to do it.

- If Mario hadn't moved away, he and Dana would have gotten married.

Answer:

<u>Simple Sentence</u>-

Ms. Norris loves reading all kinds of books.

<u>Compound Sentence</u>-  

I enjoy science fiction, but my favorite genre is romantic fiction.

<u>Complex Sentence</u>-

Kadijah can recite several poems by heart; therefore, her friends are impressed.

When Kadijah and Cal read the same folktale, they realized how interesting folktales can be.

<u>Compound-Complex sentence-</u>

Some students tell me that T. S. Elliot writes very plain poems, but others insist that he writes bizarre poems.

Explanation:

Simple sentences are those sentences that contain simple, one subject, one verb structure of a sentence. "Ms. Norris loves reading all kinds of books" is a simple sentence with a single subject "Ms. Norris" and  single verb "loves".

Compound sentences contain two independent clauses joined by one of the coordinating conjunctions for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so (FANBOYS).<em> "I enjoy science fiction, but my favorite genre is romantic fiction"</em> is a compound sentence with the presence or use of the coordinating conjunction "but".

A complex sentence contains one dependent clause joined to an independent clause by a subordinating conjunction. The two sentences <em>"Kadijah can recite several poems by heart; therefore, her friends are impressed" </em>and <em>"When Kadijah and Cal read the same folktale, they realized how interesting folktales can be"</em> are complex sentences by the use of the subordinating conjunctions "therefore" and "when".

A compound-complex sentence contains both cases of compound and complex sentences, the subordinating as well as the coordinating conjunction along with a dependent clause. The use of the conjunctions "that" and "but" makes the sentence <em>"Some students tell me that T. S. Elliot writes very plain poems, but others insist that he writes bizarre poems" </em>a compound-complex sentence.
