Answer:

The details in this excerpt best help readers imagine what the scene looks like.

Explanation:

The given excerpt is from a collection of folktales The People Could Fly: American Black Folktales written by Virginia Hamilton. This collection contains different animal tales, fairy tales, supernatural tales, and tales of the enslaved Africans.

The details in the excerpt help us imagine what the scene looks like. We see white men (buckras), different animals (a deer, hounds, an alligator), what they are doing, what the surroundings are like (the broom-grass field, the river, the bluff above the river). There are no details telling us what the scene sounds, smell, or feels like.

Thus, the correct option is option B.

Explain 2 reasons why soap became more popular in america in the 1800’s

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

The discovery of the French Nicolas Leblanc and Michel Chevreul on how to make soaps.
The end of the luxury products tax on soap.

Explanation:

In 1800 the soap became a popular product widely used in practically all purposes. In addition to the concepts of hygiene and cleanliness having increased at that time, the discovery of the French Nicholas Leblanc and Michael Chevreul about the manufacture of soap, allowed this product to be seen in the markets in a more recurrent way. This is because the soap was laboriously manufactured, with difficult ingredients, however these two Frenchmen managed to develop an alternative manufacture that was fast and effective, allowing the soap to be made available to everyone.

In addition, it was during this period that the soap stopped being taxed as a luxury item, which left it with affordable prices for all families.

<h3>Question-</h3>

Fill in the blanks.

<h3>Answer-</h3>

Tense of the verb tells when(time of an action) an action is done. There are three tenses of the verbs: past tense, present tense, and the future tense. Past tense tells about actions that happened in the past. “Was” or “were” are added before the main verbs to change it in past tense. Present tense tells about actions that are currently happening in the present(did some changes to the question). We add “is” or “are” to change the verb into present tense. Future tense tells about actions that will happen in the future. Adding “will” or “shall” to the verb will change it in future tense.

→I did some minor changes to the question too, you can check.
