The bill of rights play a role today, in that people living in the US are given rights such as the freedom of speech, assembly, religion, etc, and that the government should not try to interfere with a person living in the US's belief unless it starts to hurt other people. Without it, our citizens would not have been part of a democratic nation, and it would not have had a right to voice and do what they want (that is, while it is under the law)
hope this helps
Answer:
C. Sykes is a violent man who has killed three women
Explanation:
This is the question regarding Zora Neale Hurston's short story "Sweat".
The story tells about Delia, a wash-woman, who is married to Sykes, an abusive, unfaithful, violent husband.
The particular question refers to the scene where few local men, after seeing Delia carrying laundry on her pony, start talking about her.
They first noticd how hardworking she is and how fifteen years of bad marriage changed her appearance.
Then they start talking about her husband, Sykes, blaming him for mistreating his wife, expressing their lack of nice words for him.
However, although considering him violent, they don't state that he has killed three women; they only say the amount of beating Delia took was enough to kill three women, which can be seen from the line:
"He done beat huh ‘nough tuh kill three women, let ‘lone change they looks,” said Elijah Moseley.
The hockey team <span>coveted</span> the first-place trophy that was awarded last year to their arch rivals.
Coveted means to really want something.
Assuming that the bolded word is winner, the correct answer is object complement.
The word winner refers to the word <em>play - </em>and given that the word play is the direct object of this sentence, then the word <em>winner </em>will be its complement - it will complete it, and answer the question What did the critics declare the play to be?
It cannot be a predicate nominative because it is not preceded by a verb. It cannot be a direct object because that is <em>the play. </em>It cannot be a predicate adjective because it is a noun, not an adjective.
